Reportedly, it’s a story Lynch just loves to tell. To begin with, there’s the meet-cute tale of how the Lancome model and the director first became acquainted. I'm no Hollywood gossip-monger (well, maybe a little), but when I heard that their painful breakup in 1990 was blamed partially on Lynch’s phobia concerning kitchen smells – well, I couldn’t just let that alone, could I?

The relationship between the beautiful Isabella Rossellini and “Tsar of Bizarre” director David Lynch lands squarely in that third category. Sometimes love is grand, sometimes it’s a kick in the teeth, and sometimes it can be more than a little strange. Photo by Georges Baird Cover Photo by Thiago Piccoli
