¿Conocer la verdad o disfrutar de la magia?

Eraserhead - SPOILER ALERT!!!

Tal vez algunos de ustedes sepan quien es David Lynch. Los que lo saben, probablemente han visto su película 'Eraserhead'. Los que no, pues es un cineasta que recomiendo mucho. Uno de los misterios más grandes de la película es el extraño bebé que aparece. Lynch nunca ha revelado nada al respecto, ni tampoco sobre sus demás películas enigmáticas como 'Mulholland Drive', etc. Eso me gusta, mantiene la atención del público. A continuación una entrevista con el genio, donde se plasma su forma misteriosa de ser.

Concuerdo con él. Creo que es mejor que algunas cosas no se sepan, para mantener la magia. ¿Alguien sabe qué rayos significa el símbolo que escogió Jimmy Page para el 4to álbum de Led Zeppelin? Nadie lo sabe. Por eso es un misterio.

Question: Did you make that thing?

David Lynch: That I . . . I don't . . . I . . . Stephen, I don't wanna, uh . . . talk about that.

Can you just tell me if it's a . . . sculpture? It's so well done. Someone I saw it with thought that it might be a calf fetus.

That's what a lot of people think it is.

I thought it was made, but couldn't figure out how you got it to move. Was it battery-operated?

I really don't . . .

You credit a doctor in the film. I s that related?

Well, I was looking into different ways, you know, in the beginning...

And?

If I say, I'll really feel bad.

Is it because you'd be giving away a technical secret, or because you'd be arrested?

You know, there's no promotional photos of the baby because people, like, uh...you know... it's like, nice to discover along in the film and not to know, like...much about it.

You say all the sounds are organic. Do you use the sound of a real baby crying?

No.

Then what is it? Or won't you tell that either?

I'm sorry, Stephen. Doggone it, you know, I'm not trying to, you know... It's just the baby stuff, I....

– END –

So do you really still want to know? Well let me put it this way:

"I hate talking about how things are done. It's like a magic trick. As soon as people know how it was done, they say, 'Oh.' The curiosity instantly vanishes." David Lynch.
