The Profile

David Keith Lynch (born January 20, 1946) is an American filmmaker, artist and musician known for surreal, dreamlike films such as Eraserhead, Blue Velvet and Mulholland Drive.

Lynch is a multidisciplinary artist (film director, visual artist, musician). He co-created Twin Peaks with Mark Frost and frequently collaborated with composer Angelo Badalamenti; Trent Reznor contributed music to Lost Highway. His work is noted for dream logic, doubling, and distinctive sound design.

DeBaser's reviews celebrate Lynch's dreamlike, often nightmarish cinema — from early black-and-white experiments to sprawling digital epics. Recurring notes: uneasy atmosphere, doubling/doubles, potent soundtracks and formal provocation. Readers here range from ardent admiration to serious critique.
