How was Lynch thinking? | Ft: Todd Mcgowan | The Artists with Suchita TA156

In Episode 156, we enter the unsettling, hypnotic world of David Lynch with acclaimed film scholar Todd McGowan, author of The Impossible David Lynch. Lynch is one of cinema’s greatest paradoxes. He worked within Hollywood systems and budgets, yet created films that feel radically independent. From Blue Velvet to Mulholland Drive, from Twin Peaks to Wild at Heart, his cinema resists easy interpretation while remaining deeply watchable. So how did Lynch stay between mainstream cinema and art-house radicality? Todd McGowan unpacks Lynch through Kant, Freud, fantasy theory, and the unconscious — revealing why Lynch’s films are not puzzles to solve, but experiences to undergo. We explore whether Lynch was more classical than we assume, how he erased the “wall” between fantasy and reality, and why feeling — not logic — structures his cinema. This episode is essential for filmmakers, theorists, and anyone fascinated by how cinema can disturb, seduce, and transform an audience. ⏱️ TIMESTAMPS 00:00 Introduction 01:28 Kant, Freud & Lynch 04:20 Erasing the wall (Blue Velvet) 06:57 Staying between mainstream & art film (clip) 08:15 His most “mainstream” film – Wild at Heart 10:01 Godard & Lynch (clip) 11:30 Cinema of feeling vs cinema of reason 12:20 On Godard’s passing (clip) 15:57 Lynch as a traditional Hollywood director?
