That's just David Lynch, no?

You'd think so, but then he makes The Elephant Man and The Straight Story. Both pretty grounded and simple to follow scripts with not too much Lynchness to them. I honestly don't know what to make of Lynch.. he was a man of contrast.

I saw someone suggest The Elephant Man as the best way to introduce someone to Lynch, and after watching it, I totally get it. Amazing film.

Unfortunately, it's next to impossible to find these days and I was only able to watch it after finding a torrent.

These are my two favorite films of his. I'm not much of a Lynch fan though, so I think it tells.
