Murderist posted:Windswept is incredible and I've had multiple workdays spent listening to it on repeat.. If I'm not wrong that was the music playing in that end-of-episode scene where Coop is sadly admiring the lawman statue's shoes? Yes, that's the one. "Windswept" is pretty much Dougie's leitmotif.

tbh a fan edit with the extended Jeffries scene + the fan stare added in would be kind of perfect.

I'm sure I've mentioned this before but the one Missing Pieces scene I think shoulda made it into the movie for sure is the one where Leland teaches Sarah and Laura some Norwegian or the song in Norwegian or whatever it is.

Is that the cut dinner scene? Because I would definitely want that back in, too. It works so well to see two very different family meals in the Palmer household.

Big Bad Voodoo Lou posted:This show has made me into a huge fan of the Chromatics and Johnny Jewel. I loved "Shadow" and "Windswept," and that led me deeper into their back catalogue (since Jewel is a member of the Chromatics too). His label, Italians Do It Better, has tons of great music, mostly involving him, and the vast majority is REALLY cheap. I'm talking $1 album downloads and $3 CDs. I suspect it would appeal to most of you.

Yep, that's the one. And yeah the contrast between the other one is great, and kind of this one moment of calm showing that they were able to be a family, even for just a brief moment, is very powerful to me.

The most impactful scene in Missing Pieces to me is the scene between Sarah and Laura where it implies that Sarah knows about the abuse and that it's "happening again" and breaks down. That changes so much about the show for me.

Also, what seems to precipitate the "it's happening again" and Sarah breaking down is her looking for her blue sweater while she was already wearing it. I never understood why that would set Sarah Palmer off, exactly.

Maybe Sarah acted the way she did in those scenes because she has a literal monster inside of her?

I think it was that she realized she was mentally foggy and maybe that knew it came from being drugged by Leland, and that he did that when he was abusing Laura.

cis autodrag posted:A lot of my friends have experienced sexual assault and having listened to and supported them through their own stories, FWWM is an intensely powerful movie. Maybe it's not Lynch's best work, but it's about the most emotional true depiction of domestic abuse ever put on screen and some of my friends have said they watching it was like a year of therapy. I agree pretty much. Not that I think the film is perfect, but that it's weakest parts are kind of the extraneous parts separate from Laura's story which were either hampered by production issues (like Kyle MacLachlan barely wanting anything to do with it at the time) or because it never ended up being made into the trilogy Lynch wanted it to be to fill in additional details (one can only guess but I imagine a lot of what we're seeing in season 3 is an evolution of those ideas), but everything as related to Laura is really well done and gives her character a lot of humanity that quite possibly wasn't an option on television at that time, let alone done in the way FWWM did. Also FWWM doesnt really let Leland off the hook, it definitely introduces enough ambiguity just how much agency he really had which furthers into the original show asking how much is BOB just a evil macguffin making people doing bad things or some kind of thing we sum up as the kind of evil we metaphorically sum up what people do to make it more palatable.

Well plenty of posters think Richard just has to be the by-product of Booper cause he's a real bad dude because no one is ever a bad dude when they're a born rich poo poo on super coke in a one Norma's Diner Town, especially from a upstanding line like the Horne family that were only involved with sex trafficking and murder and drugs in the original series. But maybe that'll prove true, we'll all know in three weeks at the most.

This season opens up the possibility that Mr. C raped Audrey when he supposedly "visited" her shortly after season 2's ending according to Doc Hayward (Which carries plenty of weird implications on its own), but I agree with your general point that it could end up being another example of how the supernatural aspect of the show might be softening the blow too much.

Like Ben and Jerry Horne set up a system to funnel girls barely out of high school into a literal borderline illegal brothel for at least how many years? And also claimed "first dibs" on new girls many of which were their employees in a town where working the department store or receptionist desk at great northern is your solid gig if you're a woman. Also hired contract killers to kill people, arsonist to burn down the lumber yard that employed half the town, etc Richard ran over a kid while on drugs though so yeah that's probably booper

Bummer to see people who haven't even seen FWWM proper talk about how it's improved with a bunch of stuff edited into it by internet randos. I just don't get it, it's like people advocating for the Alan Smithee cut of Dune. The Missing Pieces are cool, they are amazing to have, and it took decades of fans begging and Lynch fighting with rights owners to get them out there. The fact that he got them all color corrected and edited them together into a nice 90-minute package is awesome. He's done that with Blue Velvet and Inland Empire as well, and these featurettes are great compliments to the films themselves. I would advocate that people just let them be what they are, instead of pretending that there are two versions of FWWM.

Hakkesshu posted:Yeah, bummer how I like the version that has some of my favourite scenes in it It's a bummer to me, yes. FWWM is one of the best films of the 90s, and there are people in this thread thinking that they're talking about it, but they're talking about things that are not actually a part of the film. It confuses and obscures the actual art that Lynch created, both with FWWM and TMP.

CJacobs posted:You definitely haven't been paying attention if you think "does bad things too" is the only reason people think Richard is Booper's kid Laura wasn't evil just because BOB was in Leland when she was conceived. I think the show wants you to believe that this is what's going on, and I hope that it's actually something else. Richard Horne being evil because his father is evil (and not because of upbringing, just biology) sounds really Eugenics-y to me. Alan_Shore posted:Hot take: FWWM fan edit with the Missing Pieces is the superior version and is the only one you should watch (has the convenience store scene, the Philip scene, the normal family dinner scene, Big Ed) Watching all of season two might bore you, but watching all of FWWM actively angers some folks. Roger Ebert called it "simpleminded and scornful of its audience", and that's certainly how it can feel because it strips Twin Peaks of most things people enjoy. I think it's an interesting film, but it's still a tough sit, no matter how you slice it. Adding the missing pieces can make it more bearable, at least.
