Well, this is an odd little beast. Brazil's Davi de Oliveira Pinheiro recently completed a short film titled The Soul Detective, a film that stars none other than iconic American director David Lynch as himself. The ten minute short is the final entry in a web series called simply The Think Tank, an interview series with a variety of film makers but doing a straight up talking-head piece just wouldn't suit either Pinheiro or Lynch, and so they've come up with something entirely different - a short that uses Lynch's words as the launching point for a surreal, stream of consciousness fiction.
A detective enters a train car were he finds different manifestations of a force that haunts the place. Using his telepathic powers he tries to enter the mind of a recently deceased man before all his memories vanish.

i kinda liked this. not sure why. i have been a long time fan of lynch and the soul detective is definitely in the same lynchian style/universe. after watching the soul detective i couldn't help but think more about lynch and less about the soul detective.
i wish lynch would make a comedy. a no holds barred comedy. he's incredibly clever and humorous, i know he could do it. think the cowboy and the frenchman meets all of the quirky bits of twin peaks. i still laugh (and cry a bit) when ever i hear nance say "wrapped in plastic".
From the moment I read the paper on the ground that said "Fire Walk With Me" I wanted to find that and watch it.DavidLynchWigglyFingers!!!
