David Lynch Movies and TV Shows Ranked: From Twin Peaks and Dune to Mulholland Drive
David Lynch's work defied categorization. We look back at the movies and TV shows that made up his illustrious career.

The Straight Story might lack sinister owls or horrific doubles, but it is Lynch through and through. Written by Lynch’s frequent collaborator Mary Sweeney and John Roach, The Straight Story stars Richard Farnsworth as Alvin Straight, who makes the 240-mile trek to see his brother Lyle (Harry Dean Stanton). The Straight Story finds Lynch using his experimental techniques to underscore the weight of the years accrued by these elderly men, anchored by an outstanding performance by Farnsworth.
In a better world, Twin Peaks would be number one on any Lynch ranking. The series could have been the perfect avenue for Lynch and Frost to explore their unique interests. Although the series purports to follow FBI Special Agent Dale Cooper’s (MacLachlan) investigation into the murder of Laura Palmer (Lee), it is in fact an exploration of the eccentricities of a small northwestern logging town.
Twin Peaks has its moments of surreal horror, especially the infamous Red Room and the backwards-talking Man from Another Place (Michael J. Anderson). But it’s also an ongoing parody of soap operas and features moments of unironic teen romance, slapstick comedy, and more. When Lynch and Frost were at the helm, Twin Peaks combined these elements into something amazing. When they stepped away, leaving the reigns to Harley Peyton and Robert Engels, Twin Peaks became a parody of itself, which accounts for its lower ranking here.
Blue Velvet begins with a shot of a pleasant suburb, complete with a man watering his lawn. When the man has a heart attack, the camera follows him as he collapses, and then continues into the dirt, where it holds on the creepy crawlies lurking below the well-maintained yards. A lesser filmmaker would have stopped there, thinking that “the suburbs are weird” is enough of a statement, even 30 years after John Cheever’s best stories.
But Lynch goes farther in Blue Velvet, using its Neo Noir tropes to portray innocence lost and innocence never present. Good boy Jeffrey (MacLachlan) returns to his hometown and connects with his one-time love (Dern), only to get pulled into a mystery involving an alluring torch singer (Isabella Rossellini) and her abuser (Dennis Hopper). The scene of a nude Rossellini running outside and screaming at the void goes far beyond Blue Velvet‘s opening shot, cementing Lynch’s status as one of cinema’s most important voices.
“I’ll see you in 25 years,” Laura tells Agent Cooper in the 1991 finale of Twin Peaks. The fact that Twin Peaks: The Return only misses that promise by one year speaks to how special, and unexpected, the series is. On one hand, The Return does indeed follow-up on the original series, bringing back nearly every cast member (the retired Michael Ontkean and Michael J. Anderson declined to show up), but also exploring issues of aging, nostalgia, and unresolvable dread.
