David Lynch
David Keith Lynch was an American filmmaker, visual artist, musician, and actor. He received acclaim for his films, which are often distinguished by their surrealist, dreamlike qualities. In a career spanning more than fifty years, he was awarded numerous accolades, including the Golden Lion for Lifetime Achievement at the Venice Film Festival in 2006 and an Honorary Academy Award in 2019. Often described as a "visionary", Lynch was considered one of the most important filmmakers of his era.
Lynch studied painting before he began making short films in the late 1960s. His first feature-length film was the independent surrealist film Eraserhead, which saw success as a midnight movie. He was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Director for the biographical drama The Elephant Man, the thriller Blue Velvet, and the neo-noir Mulholland Drive. His romantic crime drama Wild at Heart won the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival. He also directed the space opera adaptation Dune, the drama Lost Highway, the biographical drama The Straight Story, and the thriller Inland Empire.
