David Lynch: Between Two Worlds Film Program
BYO damn fine cup of coffee for these screenings of Lynch's features, the Twin Peaks pilot and some deeply weird shorts.
Overview
Prepare to step inside the mind of a cinematic genius. It’s a big call, sure, but when it comes to David Lynch, it’s true. No one makes movies quite like the man who brought us Eraserhead, Blue Velvet and Mulholland Drive, and we mean no one.
As part of the David Lynch: Between Two Worlds exhibition and his accompanying visit to Brisbane, the Gallery of Modern Art is diving deep into his distinctive audiovisual catalogue, screening every feature he has ever made. That means you can watch the sci-fi flick he took his name off of, Dune; his Palme d’Or winner, Wild at Heart; and his old-man-on-a-lawnmower tale, The Straight Story — and that’s only the beginning of a very eclectic bunch of movies.
Reaching beyond the obvious stuff to the obscure as well, nine programs of short films will show his abridged slices of absurdity, covering almost 50 years of his career. Documentaries will delve into his films, art, fondness for meditation and a Duran Duran concert. Yes really. And then there’s the thing we’ve all been waiting for: the chance to see the two-hour Twin Peaks pilot episode as well as the series’ horror sequel/prequel Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me, on the big screen. BYO damn fine cup of coffee.
