This article covers a developing story. Continue to check back with us as we will be adding more information as it becomes available. Kyle MacLachlan shares a heartfelt tribute to his longtime friend and collaborator, David Lynch, following the director’s passing. Lynch, celebrated as a visionary filmmaker known for works like Blue Velvet , Eraserhead, and the cult-classic series Twin Peaks, passed away at the age of 78.
MacLachlan, who worked closely with Lynch on several iconic projects, including Dune, Blue Velvet, and Twin Peaks (as well as its prequel film Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me), credits the director with shaping his career and his life. In a deeply moving Facebook post, MacLachlan reflected on their 42-year partnership, which began with Lynch casting the then-unknown actor as Paul Atreides in Dune (1984). Read his full testimonial below: Forty-two years ago, for reasons beyond my comprehension, David Lynch plucked me out of obscurity to star in his first and last big budget movie. He clearly saw something in me that even I didn’t recognize. I owe my entire career, and life really, to his vision. What I saw in him was an enigmatic and intuitive man with a creative ocean bursting forth inside of him. He was in touch with something the rest of us wish we could get to. Our friendship blossomed on Blue Velvet and then Twin Peaks and I always found him to be the most authentically alive person I’d ever met. David was in tune with the universe and his own imagination on a level that seemed to be the best version of human. He was not interested in answers because he understood that questions are the drive that make us who we are. They are our breath. While the world has lost a remarkable artist, I’ve lost a dear friend who imagined a future for me and allowed me to travel in worlds I could never have conceived on my own. I can see him now, standing up to greet me in his backyard, with a warm smile and big hug and that Great Plains honk of a voice. We’d talk coffee, the joy of the unexpected, the beauty of the world, and laugh. His love for me and mine for him came out of the cosmic fate of two people who saw the best things about themselves in each other. I will miss him more than the limits of my language can tell and my heart can bear. My world is that much fuller because I knew him and that much emptier now that he’s gone. David, I remain forever changed, and forever your Kale. Thank you for everything. Source: Kyle MacLachlan/Faceboo
