After several months, I finally finished watching the entire Twin Peaks series and the movie Fire Walk with Me. For me, there’s no doubt that it’s a masterpiece, in fact, I think the movie can only be understood after watching the third season. What do you think of Twin Peaks? Do you think you understood it? What’s your take on it?
I like it mostly because the characters are incredibly easy to care about and connect to, and the depiction of a small town in the pacific northwest is so enchanting. It feels like a soap opera at times but in the best way possible.
The rest of it is incomprehensible but it really adds to the dreaminess of it all.
I respect any piece of media that executes on an artists vision, and twin peaks is so Lynchian that it deserves at least a try.
Also find it interesting how it’s almost impossible to fit it into an archetype. You can almost never guess if someone will like Twin Peaks or not.
