The Women of David Lynch: A Collection of Essays Paperback – July 7, 2018 by Scott Ryan (Author) David Lynch, one of America's most misunderstood filmmakers, has for decades had to cope with accusations of misogyny from critics like Roger Ebert, but the funny thing is the women actors who appear in his films almost uniformly love working with him, and the together they have crated some of the most fascinating and multidimensional female character in cinema history, several of whom are celebrated in this anthology of essays by critics, scholars, writers, and fans of the directors work.
David Lynch has been accused for decades of sexism and even misogyny in his work, due largely to frequent depictions of violence against women. Yet others see in Lynch’s work the deification of the female, and actresses like Laura Dern and Naomi Watts jump at every opportunity to work with him. “He is the master of the juxtaposition of the creepy and the sweet, the sexual and the chaste,” wrote W’s Lynn Hirschberg. “And at the heart of this tense, intriguing friction, you will always find Lynch’s women.” The Women of Lynch is a deep, provocative dive into this paradox, featuring twelve essays, thought pieces, and impressionistic interpretations of Lynch’s depiction of women on screen by an eclectic array of accomplished female critics, scholars, performers, and writers, each tackling this vexing conundrum in her own unique way. It also contains brand new interviews with Lynch actresses Mädchen Amick (Shelly Johnson, Twin Peaks) and Charlotte Stewart (Eraserhead, Twin Peaks)
