But what a trove he left us. We are blessed to have witnessed his sui generis. We will forever benefit from the artists who draw inspiration from him, including the countless creators who don't even know he inspired them.16 Jan 2025 23:56 +0000at://did:plc:6lpv2474ahnkqhtld2neig4p/app.bsky.feed.post/3lfvi7g3mxs2thttps://bsky.app/profile/keithobrien.bsky.social/post/3lfuytzxbds25Watch Megalopolis and watch TWIN PEAKS season 3 episode 8 to understand how singular Lynch was in his ability to conjure the surreal make it more empathetic than anything real - and what happens when others try.16 Jan 2025 19:21 +0000at://did:plc:6lpv2474ahnkqhtld2neig4p/app.bsky.feed.post/3lfuytzxbds25https://bsky.app/profile/keithobrien.bsky.social/post/3lfuyahbcrs25While there's the top-level thematic inspiration that David Lynch inspired in filmmakers, I think his approach to art, which was pure of heart and relentless curiosity, has an incalculable affect anyone who witnessed it. His impact will only grow. Our collective riches will flow forever.16 Jan 2025 19:10 +0000at://did:plc:6lpv2474ahnkqhtld2neig4p/app.bsky.feed.post/3lfuyahbcrs25https://bsky.app/profile/keithobrien.bsky.social/post/3lcnq2r6uy22xThe more you know. https://www.washingtonpost.com/travel/2024/12/05/taylor-swift-eras-vancouver-canada-dui/?utm_campaign=wp_main&utm_source=twitter&utm_medium=social06 Dec 2024 17:40 +0000at://did:plc:6lpv2474ahnkqhtld2neig4p/app.bsky.feed.post/3lcnq2r6uy22xhttps://bsky.app/profile/keithobrien.bsky.social/post/3latnd3nr5o2fHello again13 Nov 2024 15:16 +0000at://did:plc:6lpv2474ahnkqhtld2neig4p/app.bsky.feed.post/3latnd3nr5o2fhttps://bsky.app/profile/keithobrien.bsky.social/post/3kktfznsp6i22Theater was so still during Zone of Interest, you could occasionally hear faint singing from the Wonka screening next door - just added to the overall unease of the whole thing.07 Feb 2024 13:51 +0000at://did:plc:6lpv2474ahnkqhtld2neig4p/app.bsky.feed.post/3kktfznsp6i22https://bsky.app/profile/keithobrien.bsky.social/post/3kkrnjs6vk22wLife is good06 Feb 2024 21:00 +0000at://did:plc:6lpv2474ahnkqhtld2neig4p/app.bsky.feed.post/3kkrnjs6vk22whttps://bsky.app/profile/keithobrien.bsky.social/post/3k5zfx3kmdz25Every week, I forget I even have an account on here.
