Today is filmmaker David Lynch's 65th birthday. Art Attack is a big fan, having seen The Elephant Man, Dune, Blue Velvet and Wild at Heart back in our teens, and we were smack in the middle of high school when Twin Peaks aired in 1990 and changed the game for what was possible on network television.

Lynch leaves an indelible stamp on anything he does. His films are often meditations on mystery and the psychological depths we dare explore to find meaning. The journey is always filled with symbols and the signature Lynch motifs: curtains, fire, hallways (and usually a strobe light).

Lynch also worked extensively in advertising, directing commercials and infusing them with that signature "Lynchian" mark.

As a tribute, Art Attack compiled some of the best clips from the director's non-feature material: commercials, spots, music videos and shorts.
