Yep, I first saw him in To Live and Die in LA and there was an instant "who the fawk is THIS guy" reaction. Many of the most interesting people are the ones who straddle that ugly/beautiful line.

The real frontier is pacing and mise-en-scene. And this is where Lynch excels.

In Lynch's work, women often appear distracted, or crazy. As if they are looking into another dimension which exists next to our own. They may seem ditzy or dazed or dim, but they're seeing something others can't. The Log Lady, Sarah Palmer, Laura Palmer, Audrey, Dorothy in Blue Velvet. Remember the girl dancing on…

Those of us who have been watching Lynch since the beginning have all passed through this very same WTF phase. Often multiple times. It's just his thing.
