I Don´t Know Jack by Triggerfish

On 2009-10-01 SammyB, wrote: If your a David Lynch fan, you know Jack Nance as a ´Lynchpin´ (I couldn´t resist) in his artistic legacy. My first impressions on this tribute to Nance, is that it´s conceptually well put together, and sincere while technically leaning to the ´lo-fi´ side of things. For 91 minutes Friends, family members and collaborators try to shed light on this complex, troubled, mysterious artist´s life and death. Any serious appreciators of Eraserhead would cherish this dvd in their collection. It delves into his artistic legacy, struggle with alcohol, relationships and life in general. Lynch presents this documentary with full commitment, adding some amusing comments and stories and not JUST lending his name. He talks quite fondly and in depth about the fate that brought them together. Dennis Hopper´s contribution is well worth seeing here to. The second disc is a CD of the soundtrack which is sort of a mixture of raw Bluegrass and blues from musician singer Brantley Kearns which while it may have had some connection to Nance (Was known to him or appreciated by him) or was just the plain choice of the film-maker, It wasn´t my cup of tea. While it´s hard to discern which stories about Nance were true or embellished the overall commentary is compelling and preserves his legend as a true artistic enigma. Well worth the money!. And summed up by saying HE IS ERASERHEAD!. Currently I Don´t Know Jack has an overall rating of 8 over 10.
