David Lynch
Born 20 Jan 1946, in Missoula, Montana
Wise words: "I like to make films because I like to go into another world. I like to get lost in another world. And film to me is a magical medium that makes you dream... allows you to dream in the dark. It's just a fantastic thing, to get lost inside the world of film."
