	The Short Films of David Lynch - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Lynch submitted "The Alphabet" and wrote a script for a short film entitled, "The Grandmother." He sent the script and a print of "The Alphabet" to the AFI in Washington.
		After finishing "The Grandmother," Lynch took the film to be shown at the AFI in Washington, D.C. The head of the AFI at the time, George Stevens, Jr.
		Lynch and Splet both applied for scholarships and on the strength of "The Grandmother" (which won awards at film festivals in Atlanta, Belleview, and San Francisco) they were accepted into the program.

	DVD Verdict Review - The Short Films Of David Lynch
		Such an auteur is David Lynch, who in the thirty plus years that he has been working in film, consistently offers disquieting visions of a world split in two, a land where nightmares and hallucinations co-mingle and intermarry with daydreams and the mundane.
		He has masterminded a series of short films, unlike no one before or since, that manage to capture the fleeting, uneasy mental moments of twilight sleep, when the mind is alive and drifting with ghosts from the invisible world, and anxieties from the real one.
		David Lynch is declared a genius by this court, and acquitted of any and all charges of confusion, artistic pretension or insanity.

	GUSTO: David Lynch short films on DVD: The Alphabet, The Grandmother, and Eraserhead
		On a (paid) members-only site, Lynch creates original content for www.davidlynch.com, including a short film series, crude animations, ambient/art-installation style film experiments, and various other odds and ends that find their perfect outlet on the internet.
		The films could be only 55 seconds long (due to the small amount of film the camera could hold), use only natural light and no sync sound, and be completed in only one take (with only three attempts allowed).
		As on the "Short Films" disc, Lynch sits at his microphone, reminiscing on the long production of his film and the collaborators who stuck with him for the entire time (save original cinematographer Herbert Cardwell, who was replaced by Fred Elmes one year in).

	Cult Movies: The Short Films of David Lynch - $21.99
		The nехt short film is "The Grandmother," which he mаdе with a grant he was given by The American Film Institute.
		If you're a Lynch devotee, a student of the rеlаtiоnshiр between fine art and film, or you just like to stroll the docks late аt night hoping to get beaten up, this is must viеwing for you.
		Lynch's short films are important because they are a more potent and unаbridgеd form of his style and work--he has a lоt more freedom with the form, and thus can do basically whatever comes to mind, versus making things fеаturе length which also means making them fеаturе-liке.

	DVD Savant Review: The Short Films of David Lynch
		Lynch's introductions are mostly plain-spoken autobio stuff, in grainy B&W before a large microphone, as if he were giving testimony in a show trial.
		Lynch talks about how he made his first animated film and gives thanks to the art student friends who encouraged him to apply to the AFI for a grant.
		Lynch's effort is one of least impressive, consisting of three unconnected vignettes (that don't seem to have been done in one go as per the rules) that come off as fragments.

	Untitled Document
		David Lynch’s textural visual style is particularly enhanced when projected (not for nothing was “Eraserhead,” his 1977 feature debut, considered the last real midnight movie phenomenon), and the screen tonight was a wrinkled white sheet, adding bonus texture.
		It is not worth sidestepping, and certainly Lynch never did, that his unsettling early shorts found horror in the body, in gynecology, in sex, and in the family that emerges from these things.
		The DVD collection of his short films is completed with Lynch’s contribution to the 1996 collection “Lumière and Company,” in which the hundredth anniversary of cinema was celebrated by offering 40 directors worldwide the opportunity to shoot one minute of film on the original hand cranked camera of the Lumière brothers.

		The shorts run all the way back to Lynch's earliest experiments with the film medium and are an outstanding chronicle of his development as an artist.
		The only one of Lynch's shorts to have appeared previously on DVD (as part of the film Lumiere and Co), this 55-second oddity was already the highlight of that previous movie.
		Lynch has always taken a keen interest in crafting unique soundscapes to go with his films, and they are translated to DVD about as well as they ever could given the original recording limitations.

	ERASERHEAD; THE SHORT FILMS OF DAVID LYNCH; DUMBLAND - DVDs (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Lynch was notoriously resistant to structure during his tenure at the AFI, claiming ignorance of basic narrative techniques.
		It's impossible to "get" a film that's not directed at the part of the head that understands things in a logical context; this is a film that couldn't exist without other films, making it, like the fetal horror that comprises its moral compass, a product of impossible parentage, vulnerable to the most intimate--and futile--of investigations.
		The importance of Lynch as an artist is that he seldom tries to impose sense on his pictures, which is not to say that his films are surreal (they're as goofily, ominously straight as Andrew Wyeth or Grant Wood as they are surreal, after all).

	eFilmCritic - DVD REVIEW: The Short Films of David Lynch
		Lynch seemed to have lost his way: where ERASERHEAD was uncompromisingly authentic in its creation of a nightmare world, his later work was just ineffectually weirded out.
		If Lynch’s “vision” carried more force back when he was a struggling art student, then this DVD edition of his early short films, coupled here with a few post-fame efforts, should be of more than just archival interest.
		Filmed in a single continuous shot, it has a double-amputee who writes a letter to an acquaintance (recited in voiceover) while a doctor (Lynch) tends to her stumps.

		The next short film is "The Grandmother," which he made with a grant he was given by The American Film Institute.
		If you're a Lynch devotee, a student of the relationship between fine art and film, or you just like to stroll the docks late at night hoping to get beaten up, this is must viewing for you.
		Lynch's short films are important because they are a more potent and unabridged form of his style and work--he has a lot more freedom with the form, and thus can do basically whatever comes to mind, versus making things feature length which also means making them feature-like.

	The Short Films of David Lynch (2002) (V) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Essentially a collection of Lynch's early student films, it also features newly-recorded (2002) introductions from Lynch himself as he explains his feelings for each piece of his work.
		The strangest is probably "The Amputee," which was filmed to test the difference between two different kinds of stock footage supposedly.
		Lynch plays a nurse who walks into a room and replaces an amputee woman's leg wrap.

		Lynch enters after a minute or so in a nurse costume, his hair in a long ponytail flipped over one shoulder.
		Synopsis Lynch's first film project, it is basically an endlessly repeating film of people vomiting with their heads on fire projected on to a special sculptured screen featuring twisted three-dimensional faces in various states of puking.
		It's worth noting that, while 99.9% of movie directors become filmmakers because they're into films, Lynch came to filmmaking purely as an extension of his painting, and was never a movie buff.

	David Lynch - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Lynch is notoriously evasive and cagey in interviews, and refuses to discuss the plot details and "true meanings" of his films, preferring viewers to come away with their own interpretations.
		Lynch was turned off by the content of the book and Roth subsequently took the project to Michael Mann who went on to direct the film as Manhunter (1986).
		Lynch has said that early on in his career he got a chocolate milkshake at one restaurant near his house almost every day for seven years in a row, along with "four, five, six, seven cups of coffee--with lots of sugar" [14].

		Lynch is capable of making some of the most striking and original films of recent past may be acknolledged.
		Lynch uses this song partly in his genious magnum opus 'Mulholland Dr.', as also the song 'Go get some', the latter used as backing music for a steamy lesbian scene with Naomi Watts.
		David Lynch has proven to be that flamboyant artist again, untouchable, childlike, and surreal at times, although this one is not so much for the eye as it is for the ear.

		Six of Lynch's short films, from his very first works to his AFI films and a couple for French TV.
		Each short is introduced by Lynch (a rare attempt at introspection, even if in the end he doesn't say much).
		A boy (called "Maht!!" by his parents, the only word spoken in the film), dressed in a snazzy suit but harassed by his parents for wetting his bed (with orange liquid), plants some seeds in his bed and grows a grandmother.

		Later shorts like "The Cowboy and the Frenchman" illustrate the redundant and absurd dialogue that will become a hallmark in later films while establishing the absurd sense of humor that would find its greatest expression in Twin Peaks.
		Lynch introduces each film, explaining its origin, and thus fills the gaps in his evolution as a filmmaker.
		Scott Castle is one thesis shy of a master's degree in film.

	'Cinderella Man,' 'The Short Films of David Lynch,' 'Toy Story 2'
		But the way this film really blew it was with the dishonest, one-dimensional portrayal of Max Baer — a real person, not Ivan Drago from "Rocky." Baer's clan, including Jethro Bodine himself, was rightfully ticked off with the way Sr.
		Preceding each film is interview footage in which Lynch puts things in context, giving us an enjoyable glimpse of his life as an emerging artist.
		But the real fun lies in the "toy box" section, with deleted scenes, hilarious bloopers in the style of nonanimated films (some of these were on the original release) and a great, if lengthy, quiz to determine which toy you most resemble.

		The Grandmother ist ein nur teilweise animierter 30min-Beitrag, der in seiner Machart und seiner düsteren Atmosphäre schon ein wenig an Lynchs ersten abendfüllenden Spielfilm "Eraserhead" erinnert: Ein kleiner Junge "züchtet" aus einem Samen eine Großmutter, die ihm das Leben mit seinen strengen Eltern versüßen soll.
		In The Cowboy and the Frenchman, einem wieder längerem, knapp 30min-Beitrag erleben wir Lynchs Ansicht über die Franzosen.
		Es macht Spaß, sich die einzelnen Beiträge anzuschauen und mit dieser DVD seine Lynch-Sammlung komplettiert zu sehen - insbesondere "The Grandmother", der einzige Film, der das bietet, was sich der normale Fan unter einem Film mit dem Prädikat "Lynch" vorstellt, weiß zu fesseln.
