Artists Love Twin Peaks, Season 3. Join Josef and me for an insightful conversation on the art of filmmaking—from the resourceful grit of Detour (1945) to the visionary storytelling of David Lynch. We explore DIY filmmaking, hidden story layers, symbolism, and how making films from the heart can turn resource limitations into courage. Perfect for indie filmmakers, Lynch fans, and story junkies alike. Josef is a story-lover in the classic mold and a creator of film, poetry, fiction, sound design, painting, songwriting, etc. This was a true pleasure:0:20 Customized DIY filmmaking2:26 What goes into a film scene?
