“The Beautiful Ones” musical number in “Purple Rain” is one of my favorite sequences in any movie.

Watching it in Dolby Cinema was a beautiful experience.

kyle_maclachlan Forty-two years ago, for reasons beyond my comprehension, David Lynch plucked me out of obscurity to star in his first and last big budget movie. He clearly saw something in me that even I didn't recognize. I owe my entire career, and life really, to his vision.
What I saw in him was an enigmatic and intuitive man with a creative ocean bursting forth inside of him. He was in touch with something the rest of us wish we could get to.
Our friendship blossomed on Blue Velvet and then Twin Peaks and I always found him to be the most authentically alive person I'd ever met.
David was in tune with the universe and his own imagination on a level that seemed to be the best version of human. He was not interested in answers because he understood that questions are the drive that make us who we are. They are our breath.
While the world has lost a remarkable artist, l've lost a dear friend who imagined a future for me and allowed me to travel in worlds I could never have conceived on my own.
I can see him now, standing up to greet me in his backyard, with a warm smile and big hug and that Great Plains honk of a voice. We'd talk coffee, the joy of the unexpected, the beauty of the world, and laugh.
His love for me and mine for him came out of the cosmic fate of two people who saw the best things about themselves in each other.
I will miss him more than the limits of my language can tell and my heart can bear. My world is that much fuller because I knew him and that much emptier now that he's gone.
David, I remain forever changed, and forever your Kale. Thank you for everything.

I think Werner Herzog’s remake was perfect and of course I love Bram Stoker’s Dracula. They’re two of my favorite movies ever. While I thought it was well made, this didn’t reach the heights of those films for me, unfortunately.

One of my favorites. Criminally underrated and also, I just realized it’s an official remake of All About Eve

Next time you have an idea that seems too crazy, just remember that John Woo once walked into an office and said "I wanna make a movie where Nick Cage plays John Travolta playing Nick Cage, and John Travolta plays Nick Cage playing John Travolta," and someone wrote him a check for 80 million dollars

Sharon Stone is on another level in this one. People villainize her character but I think she’s a tragic figure. She’s trapped in this marriage and she doesn’t have a lot of options in the cutthroat world of pimps and hustlers in Vegas. I feel sorry for her more than anything.

Saw it for the first time in 15 years. Completely deranged, hypnotic, and visceral.

It feels like a dream or like I’m watching someone’s memories.

Masterpiece. One of the greatest debuts ever. Precise, elegant filmmaking.

The stuff dreams are made of. I first saw this on Thanksgiving when I was eight years-old.
