Made for the American Film Institute while Eraserhead was in financial limbo. The AFI was testing two different stocks of black and white video and enlisted Frederick Elmes to test each one. Lynch asked Elmes if he could shoot something with this stock and so he and Catherine Coulson stayed up all night writing script. The result was a one shot scene with Catherine Coulson about a woman attempting to write a letter while a female nurse (played by Lynch) tends to her leg stumps.

After Six Figures Getting Sick, Lynch was reluctant to continue working in film due to the high cost involved. However, fellow student H. Barton Wasserman saw Lynch’s moving painting, and gave him $1000 to create similar one. “He (Wasserman) would buy a projector and mount it to the floor next to his chair and it would be bolted down, so he’d just click on the projector and have a screen that this thing would play on. And when the projector was off, the screen would be just like a piece of sculpture.”1 Lynch used $450 of the money to buy a used Bolex camera, then went to work filming. After two months of work, he took the film to be developed, only to discover the film didn’t turn out.Read More »
