How does David Lynch create his surreal films?
It’s not about logic, it’s about the associative currents. Like in a dream, things connect in ways that don't make sense on the surface, but they feel right. You might see something, and then another thing appears, and suddenly there’s a whole world. It’s about the feeling. You follow the feeling. *Twin Peaks* was like that, a little town, a murder, and then suddenly you're in a black lodge with dancing spirits. It's about allowing those images to come, those sounds, those characters. You don’t question them too much; you embrace them. That’s the thing about this thing. It’s a process of discovery, of seeing what emerges from the subconscious.
