RIP: David Lynch, 78: iconic film maker

David Lynch passed away today, no cause of death given but it was known he suffered from severe emphysema from years of smoking.

Lynch is best known for bringing us such iconic films as Eraserhead and Blue Velvet, and the Twin Peaks TV series. He also made the first film adaptation of Frank Herbert's Dune, which was quite the spectacle though a miserable box office flop.

The Rolling Stone obit is a very interesting read. He wasn't really my cup of chai, but he was a rather revolutionary film maker and I can respect that even if his films weren't my thing.
