On this new entry in the special episode series Breaking It Apart, I’m joined by Mike Miley, author of the book David Lynch's American Dreamscapes, to do a first of its kind episode... A look at films that may have been inspired by the collective works of David Lynch. Undoubtebly one of the most influential figures in cinema, after he recently passed away, it only made sense to do this episode on his full filmography rather than a single film. Puzzle pieces include Natural Born Killers, Synecdoche New York, Barton Fink and I Saw The TV Glow.
As always, SPOILER ALERT for any of the movies we discuss!
Mike Miley is a professor and writer whose most recent book is David Lynch's American Dreamscape.
