Appreciating my disc collection for January -- TWIN PEAKS
This is a show I grew up with like not any other show, I identified with Special Agent Dale Cooper and started drinking coffee because of this. Thank you to a fellow member who recently mentioned this in a post, it awakens my desire to complete the journey
2 original seasons in the early 90s, what I grew up with
a movie Fire Walk With Me which Nouvelle Vague luminary Jacques Rivette championed
and the 2017 Return which i've only seen close to half of.
I need this, it will be therapeutic.
David Lynch was a phenomenal director, and his late masterpiece Inland Empire made a huge impact on me when he died, that film is out there you could say. He had range too, from a simple tear jerker in The Straight Story, and The Elephant Man to the experimental fever dreams of Eraserhead and Mulhulland Drive, he was and is a national treasure, what Fellini was to Italy, Lynch was to America.
I celebrate genius wherever it comes from. Lynch if one is totally unknown to his trademarks is surrealism and the dark underbelly of the American dream. He takes you on nightmare excursions and forces you to face your fears in exhilarating ways. I love his stuff, and is why my Twin peaks watch this time will be definitive and a perfect way to inaugurate my appreciation of my disc library.
