(1977) This is the first feature film created by David Lynch, who went on to the "The Elephant Man," "Dune," many other films, and the popular television series, "Twin Peaks." Fans of the film include Stanley Kubrick, Mel Brooks, George Lucas, and John Waters. According to commentaries, Kubrick considered it his "most spiritual movie." The discussant, Dr. Mark James, has been intrigued by the film for many years due to its strange, evocative, dreamlike, surreal, primary process qualities. Dr. James is a psychoanalyst on the faculty of the Emory Psychoanalytic Institute. Presented by the psychoanalytic community in Atlanta and The Atlanta Foundation for Psychoanalysis.
