Looking for a way to get into Lynch's work. I know, a little late, but I feel like I'm missing out on something with all the condolences going out today. I've heard good things about Twin Peaks? Does it still hold up?

What about his movies? I've heard great things about Mulholland Drive, although I was very confused when I got halfway through.

Are there other works that are better to start with or just that people generally recommend as being good?

Blue Velvet is probably his most approachable work. After that Wild at Heart, then Mulholland Drive.

Personally I suggest watching a few of his films before trying to watch Twin Peaks.

Then after that you can check out his weirder shit if you're still into it.

Also, minority opinion amongst Lynch fans, I actually really like Lost Highway. That tends to be Lynch fan's least favorite one but personally I kinda dig it.

I thought Lost Highway was well regarded. I've heard Wild at Heart catch more shit. Lost Highway is fantastic. Putting FWWM aside cause the Twin Peaks of it all kinda makes it unfair I'd call it my number 3 of his behind Muholland Drive and Blue Velvet. Lost Highway slaps.

I guess it's anecdotal but I've seen a lot of people call Lost Highway mid.
