(Re Lynch and Hynchcock) Agreed...but it's as if Robyn stares at the darkness and ultimately sees light, while Lynch stares at the light and ultimately sees darkness. An oversimplification, of course - but I think the idea that ultimately we're all dirt in the end in somehow hopeful for Hitchcock. Lynch seems to rather dread the idea. There's also the fact that beneath the surrealistic, sort of shocking surface, Lynch is rather a traditionalist, and a sentimentalist, even. Robyn, I think, is less of both of those. I suspect that the list of similarities means they share a number of fans, however... - -- ...Jeff Norman The Architectural Dance Society http://spanghew.blogspot.com ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 7 Dec 2006 21:35:18 -0500 From: "Lauren Elizabeth (gmail)" Subject: Re: Wish I spent yesterday in NYC... kevin says... > I remember first seeing Eraserhead and being so exhilarated I walked all the way home without noticing I was getting rained on.
