Rencontre avec Thierry Jousse : l'Odyssée de David Lynch

Having passed away on January 16, David Lynch was one of the most influential filmmakers of the past forty years. Director of cult films such as Eraserhead, Blue Velvet, Wild at Heart, Mulholland Drive, and creator of the legendary series Twin Peaks, he built a fascinating and enigmatic body of work that goes far beyond cinema. A painter, photographer, and musician, Lynch explored multiple artistic forms, all connected by a unique universe.

Editor-in-chief of Cahiers du cinéma from 1991 to 1996, Thierry Jousse moved from film criticism to directing when his first feature film, Les Invisibles, was released in 2005. In 2011, he directed his second film, Je suis un no man’s land, starring Philippe Katerine. At the same time, he continues to write about music for the magazine Les Inrockuptibles, produces and hosts radio shows on France Musique, and has written several books. Since 2012, he has been a regular contributor to the Blow Up/Arte website, presenting carte blanche segments on music and cinema.

The author will sell and sign his book following the presentation, at the François Truffaut cinema library, right next to the Forum des images.
