The Epilogue Lady: Reflections on our David Lynch Series

We've finally arrived at the end. Back in April, we started watching the landmark television show Twin Peaks (first viewings for both Reed and Nathan). In May, we began to make our way through the feature films of the late David Lynch.

For the next three months, we would dive deep into Lynch's work. We debated, we pondered, we puzzled, we cheered, and we often simply sat in a certain degree of anxious wonder. From Eraserhead to The Straight Story, from Lost Highway to Mulholland Drive, and all the way through the landscape of Twin Peaks... we catalogued a master at work.

So now, we reflect on our key takeaways. We examine which moments and characters stayed with us, the good, the bad, and the utterly wild. We also rank our personal selections for each of the feature films. It's a chance to breathe, a chance to unwind, and a chance to debrief. If you've been with us through this whole journey, let us know your thoughts. If you're just checking us out, let this episode serve as a primer for some of the observations and conversations over the past three months.
