Blue Velvet

We arrive in our series on David Lynch at what is widely considered to be one of his greatest films. BLUE VELVET acted as a creative and cultural palate cleanser for Lynch following his strong disappointment and frustration with Dune. It sits quite effectively at the intersection of Lynch's more eccentric qualities and his more accessible qualities, offering up a story that is both elusive and coherent. We're joined this week by Father Josh Bowron -- last heard on our Midnight Mass Clergy Roundtable episode -- who is a longstanding Lynch fan and offers up some keen insights into both this film and Lynch's broader creative processes.

We go to some rich and thoughtful places in this episode and we really hope you enjoy it!
