That's it. That's the post. I can't stop making the connection to those songs.

As far as I know, David Lynch was the same way: I read that he was kind and patient with anyone that was going to be in a scary scene and only took actors as far as they could handle and they spoke well of him after those movies.
Fuck Hitchcock though.
David Lynch unfortunely also signed the letter in favor of Roman Polanski (No idea if he regrets supporting it like Natalie Portman did).
FUCK. I had no idea.
He's also adamently a proponent and supporter of Transcendental Meditation and has converted half the actors he's worked with. Which as an individual practice isnt't a problem, but the organization behind it is a huge scam started by a predatory rolls royce yogi who Lynch personally knew. The same guy who made The Beatles leave India because he creeped on their girlfriends.
I half forgive him for this because I think he probably doesnt read literally anything on the internet and has had the privilege of the organization sheltering him from any of their wrongdoing. Unless a friend of his personally told him, he might not have any idea.
Uh-oh. What's the context?
It was no secret (and he actually bragged about it "auteur" style) that he abused and tormented people on set (in particular women) to ostensibly get them emotionally shaken enough to suit his "vision."
During "The Birds," for example, he arranged it so a frozen chicken was thrown at the car window of one of the lead actresses as she was rolling up to the set!
