I'm about 55/45 on no David Lynch film, or a new David Lynch film at Cannes. I think his denials could simply be because maximal surprise is part of the plan and he doesn't like hearing all these outlets talking about it and wants to have that big moment. Some of the sources pointing in the directio...

Wild at Heart, Fire Walk With Me, The Straight Story and Mulholland Drive premiered at Cannes. Inland Empire was irrc aiming for Cannes but wasn't finished in time, so went to Venice. Twin Peaks season 3 had a special screening of the first two episodes, though it had already premiered on tv by then.

More mental gymnastic/grasping at straws: I don't know how Cannes exactly works, but if he did have something that, like someone else said, could have been an early cut and was not chosen for "Competition" and then moved into the "Feature Films Not in Competition" category, coul...

Reading all these Lynch interviews is making me want to revisit Inland Empire too. It's addictive - I live with a constant sense that I'm on the edge of understanding it, but it always eludes me. That's what I love about it. I remember coming to the realisation that it was like Twin Peaks with new ...

Jordan Ruimy says on AwardsWorthy:

The Lynch is a MOVIE.

Mann has been working on Tokyo Vice, as well as trying to get funding for his long gestating Ferrari biopic, which now seems like it's finally about to go ahead for real. Beyond that, he doesn't seem the type to work on a small production in secret.

It's also possible that this could be both a sequel to Twin Peaks and an Inland Empire style free associative head trip. TP can really be anything Lynch wants it to be now. Parallel realities and alternate selves have been invoked. It wouldn't necessarily be much tied to original locations. If there...

Looks like the rumour is certainly true - just whether it's Lynch or not remains in question.

On the AwardsWorthy forum.

I am going to channel my inner Agent Earle here and say I won’t get excited just yet. Still just an unsubstantiated rumor at this point. Cédric Succivalli is extremely reliable as a source regarding Cannes and he confirmed that the original rumour is accurate and it's a feature length film. He woul...

Cannes this year will also be the 30th anniversary of the premiere of Fire Walk With Me.

That's just there because he has presented films there before. The website is also an archive of information on previous editions of the festival.

Sure beats wondering if that HHM thing was true for.. what? 2 years?

Potentially less than a week, the line-up announcement is next Thursday. Although, Cannes sometimes have late additions.

And imagine the exhilarating surprise we would have gotten, assuming this rumour is true, had it been kept under wraps until the Cannes line up announcement? They'd made it this far without anything leaking and there's just one week to go. Why spoil it now? For clout? Attention? I mean that is kind...

Well either he's misinformed, or he's lying, or he's correct. He can be any of those three while still being a shitstirrer for the bait response. The clickbait bit doesn't really factor in for me. I don't like it either but that's seperate to appraising his reliability as a source. It's not like I'...
