Greg Olson's "Beautiful Dark" is a long, in-depth biography of David Lynch. It combines a narrative of the filmmaker's life with an analysis of his films. The text is close to 700 pages, so it is written for those who are truly curious about Lynch. Also, for better or worse, Olson provides detailed descriptions of the plots of each of Lynch's movies. Therefore, the book is only for those who have viewed the films already (otherwise the book would act as a "spoiler" for every Lynch film). But then, why would those who have seen the films need the plots recounted in minute detail? Olson's exhaustive summaries account, in part, for the book's length, but they also enable him to inspect the films and provide a thorough analysis of each one. While Olson's analyses are less than first-rate, they are usually intelligent, often illuminating, and they always steer clear of ideological axe-grinding. Olson is obviously a die-hard Lynch fan, and his enthusiasm drives the book forward. He does indulge in a bit of fawning praise (and even a few mildly embarrassing lyrical flourishes); however, his prose is energetic and precise. If you have already read "Lynch on Lynch" and "Catching the Big Fish", if you have watched "Pretty as a Picture" and the other Lynch documentaries and are still wanting more information about America's most enigmatic visionary filmmaker, Beautiful Dark will keep you busy (and entertained) for a while.

Greg Olson has been showing films for the Seattle Art Musem Series for about thirty years. He knows the world of films like no other. His depth of knowledge about David Lynch runs deep. HIs research has taken years. He is careful, methodical and an extremely fine writer on the subject of films.Jan Baross

Such was a line from one of the Stones finest songs ("Rocks Off"), and it easily applies to the psyche of film director, David Lynch. His work has fascinated me for quite a while now, and it all started way back when in 1980 (or thereabouts) which was when my introduction to David Lynch took place. First saw "Eraserhead" at the Waverly in the West Village here in New York City. Clearly, I remember gazing up at the poster in the theatre window and having serious trepidation about seeing this. "Should we?" "Shouldn't we?" I was scared. Well, all I can say is there has never been another film even remotely like it. Strange doesn't even begin to describe it. Suggestion: it's not the kind of movie you can munch popcorn to because the overwhelming feeling in the audience is nausea!Okay, onto this book. Picked this up at my local library and first off was a little surprised at the heft of this. I mean David Lynch hasn't really made that many films. What I found out was the reason for the extreme length is the author's downright ridiculous detail of all the movie plots. I would enjoy hearing about how Lynch came up w/ his screenplays and the process of filming, but not a play by play of each scene. On the other hand, Greg Olson does shed some light (no!) on "Mulholland Drive," which was a very opaque movie. I saw the film after reading the raves, but damn if I didn't have a clue what was going on. And, as par for the course w/ Lynch, this film moves at what seems a snail's pace. It drove me crazy. Actor Naomi Watts contributes here about her experience on the film and what just might be the role of her career.No discussion of Lynch would be complete w/o including Lynch's piece de resistance, "Blue Velvet." This biography gives some nice detail of the posturing by a variety of actors to secure the truly outrageous role of Frank Booth. But there was only one man born to play that role, and that man was Dennis Hopper. And knowing a golden opportunity, Hopper simply stated to David Lynch "I AM Frank Booth." No joke - Dennis Hopper was pretty much that same drug fueled psychotic while filming Apocalypse Now! in the Philippines circa 1976.Other interesting tangents include "Twin Peaks" and Kyle McLagen. Also, singer Julie Cruise admits she was traumatized by her working relationship w/ David Lynch. Love the music they created together and have enjoyed the CD that resulted from their collaboration. That said, this book offers a straightforward portrait of one of the weirdest directors to have ever graced this planet. My only major criticism would be tighter editing because there's TMI (too much information) about the individual films.

This book is a gem. If even you're not a fan of Lynch, or movies, it can inspire you to great heights with the spiritual search of an artist...sure, there's plenty left out, and, in some cases, you really don't want to meet your heroes...but, so what? You get a sense that here is a person on a spiritual quest, not just a workaholic, or some kind of weird, driven "monster".I've always wanted someone to tell me what they think, of what I saw, and this guy does it with elan. He goes through and, though maybe he just says his point of view, but for me, it explains a lot about the films I've seen, which, until now; a lot of them have been opaque. And, if you like a little mystery revealed, it is not so good. It's quite painful in fact. There's pain of course here, in learning of the lives of Lynch and his family and family of friends and co-conspirators, but plenty of pleasure as well. By the end of this heavy and very long (Almost 700 pages! Which read fast.) you sure wish like anything you too could write; or paint, or dream on canvas; and produce so much work that people got into it as much as you do.Check out the book. Learn about Olson, Lynch, his family, friends, co-workers, and YOU!
