EXPERIMENT: DAVID LYNCH - Just This

First up is David Lynch...

WALK THROUGH:
Lynch films often have over-worldy elements to them or just the general feel, Surreal and unexplained, unnoticed oddness. Start with going into an ear (Blue Velvet).
Often funny yet dark. That sort of not sure why you are laughing/why it's funny/is it funny or is it gross?!
Unexplained screaming (Eraserhead), strange detached expressions.
Sat at a tabe cell- Normal situations/ the mundane but odd in some uneasy way. Weird. A common device in his films.
Funny/sick?
Out of this world.
The lone figure...lynch often has shots like this. The innocent amongst a mess of bad things.
Red Curtains (mise-en-scene of Twin Peaks)
Fade to white.
The whole thing is in black and white (except the red) Because it seemed fitting with the dark tones and Lynch uses this idea too.
Macabre yet mundane.
