This special episode features a panel of two guest filmmakers, Adam Seccafico and Jon Bewley, who join Andrew in discussing one of the most unique and seminal filmmakers in the history of cinema. David Lynch was an American surrealist and independent filmmaker who inspired multiple generations of artists and moviegoers alike with his unmistakeable and controversial style. After his recent passing on January 15, 2025, these Speaking Cinema contributors openly and honestly discuss their views on this astonishing artist's life and work.

Some topics of discussion include everyone's takes on what Lynch was to them personally, the cultural impact of his body of work, the complexity of his ideas, how he captured both the grotesque and the beautiful, personal stories of memorable Lynchian moments, and more!

IN HEAVEN...DAVID LYNCH IS FINE
