Hello and welcome to part two of this Premium Director series on David Lynch, the follow-up to our Stanley Kubrick series.

0:06.5

If you've not watched the first episode, we would recommend going back and watching that where we covered some of David Lynch's early career,

0:13.0

Eraser Head, Elephant Man and Dune.

0:16.0

Now we're following up in this episode with Blue Velvet, Wild at Heart and Lost Highway. Now, we know

0:22.8

Twin Peaks actually falls chronologically in there. It falls in between Blue Velvet and Lost
