⭐

i've seen all of twin peaks except for the missing pieces. finally watched it last night and it was so fun to see something tp that i hadn't seen yet. adds a lot of depth to fire walk with me while softening the punch just a tiny bit

Getting really into twin peaks

It's cold and dark out, a great time for a full re-watch. Remember to watch The Missing Pieces after Fire Walk with Me. Yes, the middle of season 2 is absolutely terrible, but season 3 is incredible. There's nothing else like it, and you can get way into the lore.

twin peaks: fire walk with me

There's potentially a version of reality where we never got this film. Where we either just got a Season 3 right after season 2, or where Frost's vision of a direct sequel won over Lynch's insistence on a prequel. But I cannot for the life of me imagine a version of this story without FWWM at it's centre, without it putting Larua Palmer at the beating heart of everything like it does. It is harsh and brutal and unforgiving, but it NEEDED to be a part of Twin Peaks. Who Laura Palmer was, and the tragedy of what was done to her, was always more important than the mystery angle. Season 2 of the show lost sight of that, but FWWM rightly re-centers her. A version of the film that more closely resembles The Missing Pieces might have gone over better with audiences at the time, something that has more familiar faces, more of the small-town comfort of the series. But the lack of that familiarity is a huge part of what makes the film endure in my eyes; it didn't give audiences what they wanted, but it gave the story what it needed. It reaffirms the beating heart of Twin Peaks, and expands on what Twin Peaks can, and should, be. Laura Palmer you are Everything to me
