Cycle
David Lynch: roads to the abyss

From the Kafkaesque journey of Henry Spencer in Eraserhead to the nightmarish drift of the protagonist of Inland Empire, David Lynch has never ceased to take us off the beaten track and over the edge of unsuspected cliffs. The winding roads of the human psyche and discomfort are answered by the intricacies of narrative breakdown and the mise en abyme. The filmmaker opens the doors to parallel worlds reflecting our distorted expectations and challenging our passivity as spectators. There's never a bad excuse to revisit this prolific body of work and experience its vertiginous nature.
