Movies and TV Shows

I have a deep fondness for David Lynch. The relationships he cultivates with staff and talent seems admirable, and more than his surrealism, I appreciate his ability to take mundane, or rote scenes and inject something new. For example, in twin peaks the straight lace fbi main character's "rally the forces scene" has him revealing he has a literal belief that he is a physic, or the introduction of the police office having the decorative deer head collapse on the table. It's just little visual and conceptual additions which subvert the viewers expectations and gets you reconsidering the scene. You can tell he's having fun.

Additionally, I think that kojima studios work on death stranding actually scratches the same itch, though not a film. I love the little emotional beats Norman Reedus' character takes whenever people insist on shaking his hand (he is phobic of touch), and the more earnest, sudo comedic scenes, like when you meet a character who dies and is revived every 23 minutes in his house without any preparation or context are welcome diversions which capture the magic of the weird while delivering essential exposition.
