David Lynch’s biggest contributions to queer cinema, from Mulholland Drive to Twin Peaks

The wonderful and strange universe of David Lynch was home not just to captivating stories, but authentic queer characters too.

The acclaimed director, actor, and musician, best known for his work on Twin Peaks, died on Thursday (16 January) at the age of 78.

“It is with deep regret that we, his family, announce the passing of the man and the artist, David Lynch,” a post on his Facebook page reads. “We would appreciate some privacy at this time. There’s a big hole in the world now that he’s no longer with us. But, as he would say, ‘Keep your eye on the donut and not on the hole.’ It is a beautiful day with golden sunshine and blue skies all the way.”
