The Delightful David Lynch

Watching him talk about the making of Eraserhead was better than the actual film (which gave me nightmares). (That poor, poor baby.)

David Lynch and Catherine Coulson (aka, The Log Lady from Twin Peaks) remembered how they'd done things over six years to create this weird world.

I loved the way they remembered the money struggles so cheerfully. It must have been bad (Lynch was actually living in the "Henry's room" set for a couple of years - scary!!!).

Yet they remembered people and institutions with fondness (not a bad word was said about anyone). They focused on fun they had creating things, the friendships with cast and crew and long ago eaten donuts and pie.

Is there something you wish you had a bigger budget for right now? (Marketing your business? New clothes? Raising a family?)

How can you have more fun with the enforced creativity smaller budgets demand?
