Smoke Break #845: OMFG David Lynch Talks To Barbie About His New Coffee Brand

David Lynch is one of my favourite directors (Blue Velvet, Twin Peaks, etc.). Here he is – undeniably at his finest – putting together a mesmerising new short in support of his new coffee (and we all know how much Lynch loves his coffee).

To promote his new David Lynch Signature Cup Organic Coffee, the film auteur made this insane or absolutely brilliant video of a conversation he has with a Barbie doll about the coffee. The video consists of a relentless four minute close-up of Barbie’s head firmly clenched in Lynch’s hand as he provides all the dialogue, making very little attempt to distinguish between his gravelly voice and Barbie’s.
