Summary: One of the most distinguished?lmmakers working today, David Lynch is a director whose vision of cinema is?rmly rooted in?ne art. He was motivated to make his?rst?lm as a student because he wanted a painting that "would really be able to move." Most existing studies of Lynch, however, fail to engage fully with the complexities of his?lms' relationship to other art forms. The Film Paintings of David Lynch?lls this void, arguing that Lynch's cinematic output needs to be considered within a broad range of cultural references. Aimed at both Lynch fans and?lm studies specialists, Allister Ma.
