If you love Lynch then you'll love this documentary. We go to the master's childhood and learn about the events that affected him the most. We are lucky to live at the same time as a genius like him.

The moments that inform Lynch's work, as always, are the pregnant punctuations of what is left unsaid. The mystery of sexual anger in a suburban idyll, a father figure lacking empathy, a passing recognition of the violence found in the boundary between nature and civilization.

It doesn't illuminate much about his filmmaking process -- Lynch is known to dodge this kind of interview -- but it's a solid profile about what drives Lynch, his fears, desires and memories. It covers mostly his youth life until Eraserhead and how living in Philly informed his work in an often disturbing way -- a city of fog, oppression, racist, mad people and a huge sense of inner despair and loneliness. Also, that story about the pale nude woman seen in his childhood could easily be in TP.

Documents Lynch's formative experiences, right up to completing Eraserhead (presumably because he's completely reticent when it comes to talking about his films). Clearly edited for affect at times but it doesn't matter - it's normally fairly congruent with Lynch's tone anyway. There's enough here for you to come to your own conclusions about the darkness he's lived through, and how his life has coloured his films.

Mediocre documentary. Lynch, who has a bit of the naif about him, makes for a compelling interview, no matter what the context.

Lynch's work, be it the films or the paintings, haven't ever struck me as things that could be enhanced by a biography. This documentary takes the painting as its principle focus. I dunno, mostly it seemed that Lynch's life and background were pretty uninteresting, and it added nothing to my appreciation. The scenes of Lynch at work are best.

A somewhat informative study of a great artist, but not without shortcomings. I mainly take issue with its obtrusive style (its - often unnecessarily - dark undertones / copious amounts of superfluous shots of Lynch smoking cigarettes). It's certainly enjoyable, but with such an interesting figure I can't help but think it would've benefited from more often stepping back and letting him speak, à la Eraserhead Stories.
