Reviews
[ David Lynch Swerves ] keenly observed a radical shift in Lynch's style, one which began to incorporate quantum physics and Vedic philosophy into the very narrative fabric of his work., The richness of Nochimson's writing, the thoroughness of her interpretation, and her assured stance in opposition to the canon of Lynch criticism to date all make David Lynch Swerves a must-read for anyone interested in the films of David Lynch. Or, for that matter, the state of film criticism in American culture. If criticism at its best is a form of revelation, then this is practically a new gospel.

Synopsis
Beginning with Lost Highway , director David Lynch "swerved" in a new direction, one in which very disorienting images of the physical world take center stage in his films. Seeking to understand this unusual emphasis in his work, noted Lynch scholar Martha Nochimson engaged Lynch in a long conversation of unprecedented openness, during which he shared his vision of the physical world as an uncertain place that masks important universal realities. He described how he derives this vision from the Holy Vedas of the Hindu religion, as well as from his layman's fascination with modern physics. With this deep insight, Nochimson forges a startlingly original template for analyzing Lynch's later films--the seemingly unlikely combination of the spiritual landscape envisioned in the Holy Vedas and the material landscape evoked by quantum mechanics and relativity. In David Lynch Swerves , Nochimson navigates the complexities of Lost Highway , The Straight Story , Mulholland Drive , and Inland Empire with uncanny skill, shedding light on the beauty of their organic compositions; their thematic critiques of the immense dangers of modern materialism; and their hopeful conceptions of human potential. She concludes with excerpts from the wide-ranging interview in which Lynch discussed his vision with her, as well as an interview with Columbia University physicist David Albert, who was one of Nochimson's principal tutors in the discipline of quantum physics., In this paradigm-shifting book, the author of The Passion of David Lynch draws on insights into the filmmaker?s creative sources that he has never revealed before to forge a startlingly original template for analyzing Lynch?s recent films., Beginning with Lost Highway, director David Lynch "swerved" in a new direction, one in which very disorienting images of the physical world take center stage in his films.
