Lynch/Oz
''Lynch/Oz'' is a 2022 American documentary film directed and written by Alexandre O. Philippe that explores the influence of the film '' The Wizard of Oz'' (1939) on the American filmmaker David Lynch. Synopsis ''Lynch/Oz'' examines the influence of the 1939 Victor Fleming-directed film '' The Wizard of Oz'' on the work of American filmmaker David Lynch. The concept for the film originates from a response Lynch gave during a Q&A panel at the 2001 New York Film Festival following a screening of his film ''Mulholland Drive''. When asked about the impact of Fleming's film on his work, Lynch said, "There is not a day that goes by that I don't think about ''The Wizard of Oz''." ''Lynch/Oz'' attempts to reevaluate the filmmaker's extended filmography within this enduring influence, from his very first short film, ''The Alphabet'' (1969), to his latest series, '' Twin Peaks: The Return'' (2017). The film was officially described as an exploration of "one of the most fascinating puzzle ...
