David Lynch is one of the best filmmakers around. Like him or not, he is one of the last living directors to have a distinct, recognisable style, from Eraserhead to Twin Peaks, and even to his new phase of filmmaking, using DV cameras to make arthouse flicks such as INLAND EMPIRE.
So it’s always great news to hear an announcement of his next project. Hollywood Today reported that Lynch is already at work on a film entitled Catching the Big Fish. Fans of the man will recognise that title as the name of his book on creativity. The film is actually a sort of documentary, as Lynch travels the world, talking to regular and irregular people about life and, presumably, creativity. The article mentions that Lynch’s journey is also an attempt for him to catch his next big fish, his next idea for a feature film.
Lynch is heavily involved in promoting Transcendental Meditation, and he claims to owe all of his creative ideas of meditation. Indeed, from reading his book, and from attempting to write myself, it does make sense that creativity is blocked by everyday pressures, and meditation can be a way to ignore such obstacles. And hopefully this film will provide even more insight to such a distinct imagination.

disappointing. i wish he’d just concentrate on making interesting movies, i don’t really care much to watch him travel around talking to people. actually, it’ll probably be amusing enough, but i wish he’d just make a movie.
