Postmodern Theory: Its Usefulness In Understanding The Film And TV Work Of David Lynch

Abstract: 20 pages in length. Beyond the political implications of postmodernism, artistic endeavors metamorphosed as a means by which to illustrate just how grand and far-reaching the response to modernism truly was. From music to film and dance to literature, the arts reflected such transformation that artists, writers and media people of all sorts were eager to portray their interpretation. The extent to which David Lynch's contribution to and influence from postmodern theory is both grand and far-reaching; that the writer, director and actor has arguably based his entire career upon the tenets of postmodernism speaks to the importance such a movement has had upon the transformation of film and television. Bibliography lists 17 sources.
