There is a little book in French on David Lynch. It's by Michel Chion, who's better known for his books on sound and the voice. I cannot speak very highly of this book, but it *is* a reference. Also, on the topic of food/eating in cinema, I believe there was a recent USC dissertation on eating and cinema. I seem to remember Peter Greenaway (*The Cook, the Thief...*) was a major topic. The author's name is Tracey (sp?) Biga. Poking through a CD-ROM of dissertation abstracts might be helpful.... Sincerely, Edward R.
