Wallace on Lynch online
One of most insightful pieces of movie writing I have seen, and certainly the best on Lynch, is an essay by David Foster Wallace. What starts as a funny, gossipy set report of 'Lost Highway' for Premiere magazine slowly builds steam to really articulate a lot of hard to articulate aspects of Lynch. The full length essay, with pages of footnotes, was published in the Wallace nonfiction collection 'A Supposedly Fun Thing I Will Never Do Again'. A great book all round and worth checking out. But if you dont see that happening you can read the essay online. It's not as nice on the eyes, but it's free.
