David Lynch (1946-2025) was one of the most indelible filmmakers of the past 50 years, and his filmmaking style was so unique that any film that came close to his method was dubbed Lynchian. He was certainly an important filmmaker to me in my formative years. As an avid film watcher in my youth, my life was changed when I saw a VHS copy of Blue Velvet when I was 13. No one ever made films like him and no one ever will again. His creativity and absolute command of all of the tenets of art bled out in every frame of his works.
