the thing with twin peaks and david lynch in general is there is a lot of poo poo you can point at and say 'this is pointless. this is bad writing because it doesn't fit into a recognisable plot or make a point' etc. especially in season 3, which has so many disconnected threads. that just isn't the way david lynch thinks about storytelling because his engines are atmosphere and feeling. he's said that it's bad to be too intentional with what you want to say because you will end up making a 'message film'. i'd say the presence of a message in a story is a predominant marker of quality for most critics (and everyone's a critic now), so he's working against what most people consider comprehensibly good. if you want to criticise david lynch stuff on this basis, you absolutely can. his preoccupations reveal themselves, because he's an unselfconscious artist. there's also that thing he said about trying therapy and giving it up immediately because the therapist warned him it may interfere with his creativity. hmm what could possibly be at the root of this man's obsession with splitting women into doubles and small town america being molested by forces of darkness. there's more to him than this obviously but these are motifs he returns to repeatedly. there is often a coherent plot in the usual sense on top of things, but sometimes there just isn't. you either like it or you don't, and sometimes parts of it work for you while others don't even though they are both equally 'pointless' according to a message/plot based analysis. i'm not trying to defend or criticise his style with this, i'm just pointing out what it is. roomtone fucked around with this message at 04:39 on Oct 9, 2021 |

Bird in a Blender posted:Billy Zane is way easier to tolerate than the house of idiots James visits in S2. That was really dire subplot. Having James meet Evelyn Marsh was kind of intresting since I think Evelyn was the type of woman who Laura would grow up to be and James facing that had more potential than what we got. I think a lot of Twin Peaks short comings come from the show trying to fit into the space of being a prime time drama on a major network in the early 90's and squaring that circle was not always successful. What I am saying is I would like to live in the world where someone gave Lynch same freedom that HBO gave David Chase. side_burned fucked around with this message at 19:12 on Oct 9, 2021 |

Part of my thesis with Laura she is the back story for a femme fatale you see in Film Noirs. That is to say if she hadn't been murdered you can see ten or fifteen years down the road she walks back into James's life or into some PI's office after the death of some oil tycoon she meet while working at One Eyed Jack's and then married.

I liked the Billy Zane plot a lot more when I decided to interpret him as a manifestation of Audrey's (or Laura if she's the dreamer of S1 and S2) memory/fantasy of a young Benjamin Horne/father figure. Then the convos between him and Ben, and the relationship with Audrey actually make a weird sort of sense. But yeah, it's pretty hard to do anything with him if you're watching it straight.

Got a light? So the first time I saw episode 8, I was in a hotel in Anchorage. My wife and I flew in that day and we were getting married the next day. We were both tired, but wanted to watch Twin Peaks still, so we pulled it up on the laptop and watched it in bed. Both of us fell asleep in the middle, only to wake up and see this all black Abe Lincoln going, “Got a Light?” over and over. Let me tell you, that will gently caress you up.

Throw me in with the mind blown crowd. It was all so Lynchian but also unlike anything I'd ever seen before. I still don't think I have a clear understanding of the frog lizard, or the woodsmen, or how the bomb relates, but it all just felt so right after watching it.
