The life of David Lynch has left a mark on Hollywood, especially for those who worked with the 4x Oscar-nominated writer and director.

Patricia Arquette, who starred in Lynch’s 1997 neo-noir thriller Lost Highway, mourned the filmmaker as she learned of the his death during an interview on Thursday, hours after he died at age 78. “I was just at the Marrakech Film Festival, and the woman who ran it, Melita [Toscan du Plantier], she loves David and they’re good friends.

We were talking about David, and then I called my friend Balthazar [Getty], who was in Lost Highway with me, and I was like, ‘We gotta go see David.’ And I tried to leave word for him.

I was feeling like I needed to see David,” she said on SiriusXM’s Radio Andy. “David was really incredible. There’s nobody like him.” In Lost Highway, co-written by Lynch and Barry Gifford, Arquette plays two women in separate stories, one about a jazz musician (Bill Pullman) accused of his wife’s murder, and another about a young mechanic (Getty) lured into a web of deceit between a temptress and her gangster boyfriend.
