Patricia Arquette was on-camera Thursday when she found out that David Lynch, who directed her in the 1997 film Lost Highway, had died. She and the cast of Apple TV+ show Severance were being interviewed on SiriusXM's Radio Andy.

The late director’s unique vision and the love that his persona inspires make it easy to forget how winding his path to greatness was.

Now here’s something that you can talk about with both your artsy friends and drama-loving mates. During a press interview for Dan Erikson’s sci-fi television drama, Severance, Andy Cohen shocked the cast with the news of renowned film director David Lynch’s death.

Netflix CEO Ted Sarandos says that David Lynch had been working on a limited series for the streamer, but it went unrealized due to COVID.

The director developed such a distinct style that “Lynchian” became a go-to term for any sort of surrealism onscreen. These scenes from his work get to the heart of what that term embodied.

The filmmaker invited us to open our minds to the impossible, with movies such as "Blue Velvet" and "Mulholland Drive" that defined an American surrealism.

As part of its celebration of the life and work of David Lynch, the Criterion Channel will be showing the intimate documentary portrait David Lynch: The Art Life for free in the U.S. from now through the end of January. The film will be available to stream with or without a Criterion Channel subscription.

David Lynch's films and TV series reflected the dark, ominous, often bizarre underbelly of American culture- one increasingly out of the shadows today.

An L.A. native, John Lopez has written for Strange Angel, Seven Seconds, The Man Who Fell to Earth and The Terminal List. He was also an associate producer on The Two Faces of January and spent years assisting Tom Sternberg, producer of Lost Highway.

Laying bare American life's hidden horrors and absurdities, the auteur behind 'Mulholland Drive' and 'Twin Peaks' held up a distorted but unsettlingly truthful mirror.
