It can say things, big abstract things, and I love that about it,&#8221; Lynch says as the short begins. &#8220;Some people are poets and have a beautiful way of saying things with words, but cinema is\u00a0its own language and so you can express a feeling or a thought that can&#8217;t be conveyed any other way. It&#8217;s a magical medium.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Lynch also ruminates on the ways in which painting inspired his love of film, how ideas are like fish, and his love of transcendental meditation (TM).\u00a0&#8220;Maybe enlightenment is far away, but it&#8217;s said that when you walk toward the light, with every step, things get brighter,&#8221; he says. &#8220;Every day, for me, gets better and better, and I believe that enlivening unity in the world will bring peace on Earth.
