It’s a sad day for film fans. David Lynch, the influential creative master whose style became so distinctive he spawned his own adjective—”Lynchian,” of course—has passed away. The news was shared in a post on his official Facebook page:
“It is with deep regret that we, his family, announce the passing of the man and the artist, David Lynch. 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.’
