I'd love to work with David Lynch. I'm such a big fan. He's a genius.
It's amazing how quickly human beings adapt, isn't it? It was such a great crew, and David [Lynch] was wonderful to work with [on 'The Elephant Man']. It was a very thrilling time, actually.
There are two major masterpieces that really brought the language of dreams or nightmares to the screen. The initial one is Dali and Bunuel's 'Un Chien Andalou,' and then later, David Lynch's 'Eraserhead.'
But my mother loved The Elephant Man, and my father gave David Lynch a scholarship to study in Rome.
I'm a big David Lynch fan.
I wanted to work with Mike Leigh. I had my list of British people I wanted to work with, and I wanted to work with David Lynch and Woody Allen.
We love David Lynch. We're big David Lynch fans.
I saw David Lynch's 'The Elephant Man' when I was 15. I was completely bowled over. I found it so beautiful, strange and mesmerizing that I went back to the cinema every night for a week to see it.

I just wanted to work with David Lynch.
I spent a long time on my first movie, which was the sequel to a short film that I did called 'Carne.' And I had no money. I shot it over a period of three years, a bit like David Lynch directed 'Eraserhead.'
David Lynch is very important to me, and he does dreamlike movies, but my dreams are not like David Lynch's dreams. I have no interest in copying anybody's work. It would never occur to me to want this to look like someone else's thing.
I remember being really grateful that David Lynch had actually even thought of casting me, because I was a huge fan of his.
The first time I lay actual eyes on the real David Lynch on the set of his movie, he's peeing on a tree...Mr. David Lynch, a prodigious coffee drinker, apparently pees hard and often.
I'd really love to watch David Lynch work, to be a fly on the wall.
I'm a massive fan of David Lynch and 'Twin Peaks.'
