David Lynch Theater Presents: Do You Have a Question for David? Part 1
Please note: Electrical interference is on audio track at times.
Masks were worn and social distancing was maintained at all times. 👍
Thank you for watching!

[@ilovethebees]

I love how Mr. Lynch repeats every question before answer them

[@user-qb3jg8ep9t]

This shows how he really tries to understand and get to the bottom of the question

[@arhum1224]

He even repeats the names of who asked it and refers to them by their username almost as if he's directly talking to them; It's so lovely.

[@dibrenn3432]

Arhum yeah that’s what really gets me. The dude has no discernible ego.

[@MattMelon519]

good because I can barely hear what sabrina is saying

[@HO-yc3pv]

It's for YOU, the audience. The producer probably told him to repeat the question since the audio is only recording his voice.

[@holmhelena]

I love that he put his suit on to answer our questions.

I don't think you should be ashamed of your work (Dune), David. I personally find it rewarding to go through the process of creating films just to have an additional unit of output and human experience out there for the collective good to smile upon. No matter how "bad" you or someone else says something you made it, even everyone for that matter, I still believe it has inherit value. For that reason, I am proud of all the amateurish films I've made, regardless of the quality they ended up as. I feel that they're pure of intention, and I think that's enough. Even the ones I wasn't totally into that I was told to make I'm still proud of, which I'm sure is how you felt about Dune. Just know that we're all proud of you, buddy! Have a wonderful day!
