David Lynch and I discovered, when I did Blue Velvet with him, that he lived about a block and a half from me for pretty much my whole childhood. We went to the same Hamburger Hamlet, and his daughter and I both had our birthday parties at Ponyland, where the Beverly Center is now. It’s just so funny that he would be such a huge part of my life as an actor. We didn’t make Blue Velvet here, but Wild at Heart we made almost exclusively here—downtown, the Valley, all over L.A. Then we did this experimental, wild film, Inland Empire, which we shot all over L.A. for two-and-a-half years, including my death scene at the end of the movie. My character dies on a star near Hollywood and Vine. Right on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Not that far from Grauman’s.
