Sweet and short. A lot to like about this, but I couldn’t help but wish that Lynch dug just a little bit deeper on everything here. He’s one of my all time favorite directors/creatives and many of the stories that he tells here felt pretty familiar. 

In typical Lynch fashion it didn’t follow any sort of set structure or formula. Some chapters are literally just contained to a single sentence, while others go on for a couple of pages. It scratches the surface on a lot that I am interested in, but it doesn’t even get too much deeper than that. Lynch has always been reluctant to share too much about the inspiration and meaning behind his work, so I wasn’t expecting a full deep dive into what Inland Empire means or anything like that. But, I was hoping to go just tad bit deeper into his creative process. 

For what it’s worth, he has some good tidbits in here. Might be worth returning to for some inspiration at some point.

Not what I expected.  Very shallow listing of things he believes In relation to films and meditation.  Had it been better organized, it would have been more impactful.
