Lynch/Oz, a very fine documentary on the connections between the filmmaker David Lynch and his work and the 1939 American masterpiece The Wizard of Oz, is hitting the Criterion Collection today! You can buy it right here. I saw this back in 2022 at the Tribeca Film Festival and here is my review from then -- I haven't had a chance to rewatch it but I'll seize that soon. I did watch some Lynch this past weekend though and hoo boy do I have a recommendation -- if you've never seen Lynch's filmed version of the 1990 staged "concert" called "Industrial Symphony No. 1: The Dream of the Brokenhearted" then you should. Well if you're a hardcore Lynch nerd anyway. Or if you love out there performance art. It was put on for BAM here in New York and it stars frequent Lynch collaborator Julee Cruise and features music from her and other frequent Lynch collaborator Angelo Badalamenti and... it's a trip and a half. It also has one of the single greatest jump scares that Lynch has ever created which, if you've seen anything by him then you know that's saying quite a lot. I watched this via an old DVD set but some kind soul put the whole thing on YouTube so watch it here:
