Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me | comment |
Fire Walk with Me is the 1992 film prequel (and sequel) to Twin Peaks, and follows the events leading up to the death of Laura Palmer in the pilot episode. It is directed by the co-creator of the series, David Lynch. Production for the film started just after the series ended. The movie featured several cameos by characters from the series (including Kyle MacLachlan as Agent Cooper) and chronicled the final week leading up to Laura's murder and discovery in the series proper.Released after the series' 1991 conclusion, the film follows two separate plot threads. The first, which takes place a year before the events of the pilot, follows a pair of FBI agents (Chris Isaak and Kiefer Sutherland) who are investigating the death of a waitress in the town of Deer Meadow. The second begins after one of the agents disappears while following up on a clue, the film cuts to a year later, where high school student Laura Palmer (Sheryl Lee) is balancing her perception as Twin Peaks' resident "good girl", a pair of boyfriends, hidden secrets and the unsettling behavior of her father, Leland Palmer (Ray Wise)...The movie had a number of deleted scenes left on the cutting room floor, which were eventually stitched together years later as a standalone movie The Missing Pieces, included as part of the Blu-ray collection of the original series and released on a standalone disc alongside Fire Walk With Me under The Criterion Collection after the revival, The Return, finished airing. Lynch has described both Fire Walk With Me and The Missing Pieces as being helpful to explain the story of The Return, at least insofar as one can actually explain the story of a David Lynch work. | |

Dying Town: With the movie's bleaker tone, washed-out colours, and so many familiar actors and locations missing, Twin Peaks starts to feel deserted and lifeless. | |

Darker and Edgier | |
Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me / int_14beeefd | comment |
Darker and Edgier: Although it occupies the same disturbing universe as the series, the film is noticeably more bleak and explicitly violent, and F-bombs are dropped freely and semi-frequently. The focus is firmly on Laura, not the kooky surrounding cast of the series, the trademark eccentric humour is largely absent, and a portion of the plot takes place in what is essentially Twin Peaks' Evil Counterpart. The Missing Pieces recopilatory movie of deleted and extended scenes show up more of the rest of the Twin Peaks residents and their little stories that was eventually explored fully in the original series, and its (more or less) Lighter and Softer than Fire Walk With Me, including with Sheriff Truman and co. antics, the Briggs parents, the Haywards, the Big Ed, Nadine and Norma love triangle and more. For people who missed the usual quirky Twin Peaks humor, don't worry, its in here fully. | |

Awful Truth: Laura finding out that her father ripped pages from her diary causes her to have a Heroic BSoD. Laura's mother Sarah Palmer clearly knows something's going on (which makes her scream of "What's happening in this house?" at the start of the series), but refuses to let herself put it together. | |

Noodle Incident: When we first meet him, Chet Desmond is arresting a bus driver and a pair of hookers next to an elementary school bus full of crying children parked on the side of a highway in Fargo, North Dakota. Why all this is happening is never made clear, and it probably never should be... though it does effectively foreshadow the shady underbelly of Twin Peaks's youth. | |

Working the Same Case: The entire mood and tone of the film drastically changes when the action moves from Deer Meadow to Twin Peaks, but both stories are set in motion by the same killer. Judging by the deleted scenes and screenplay, Phillip Jeffries, Chet Desmond, and Dale Cooper all worked the same case. | |

Cryptic Conversation | |
Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me / int_558f5da6 | comment |
Cryptic Conversation: Almost inevitable whenever the Black Lodge is involved to some degree. Philip Jeffries has been in the Lodge, and he seems to be struggling to speak intelligibly. Philip Gerard's harangue at the street corner would sound like this even if Leland Palmer weren't gunning the motor. Sadly (or fortunately, depending on certain persons' point of view), the revving engine drowns out most of what he's trying to tell the Palmers, meaning Laura never gets to hear the one non-cryptic line in the whole tirade. | |

Spy Speak/Talking through Technique: Gordon Cole uses this to dispatch his agents. He brings out a woman in a tailored red suit with a Blue Rose pinned to it to dance awkwardly in front of Agents Desmond and Stanley while he introduces her as his mother's sister's girl. This means they're going into hostile territory, will get Jurisdiction Friction, that drugs are involved, they'll be doing a lot of legwork, and that the sherrif's uncle is in federal prison. As for the Blue Rose? Those cases are special. | |

Evil Counterpart | |
Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me / int_9b54d536 | comment |
Evil Counterpart: Deer Meadow is essentially the Mirror Universe version of Twin Peaks. Where Twin Peaks is a Quirky Town that represents everything charming, wholesome, and friendly about small Close-Knit Communities in America, Deer Meadow plays drastically plays up the Lovecraft Country elements and the darker sides of small-town America, being a dysfunctional Town with a Dark Secret mostly inhabited by small-minded and petty Jerkasses, who are overtly hostile towards outsiders. | |

My God, What Have I Done?: Leland, all the time. It's suggested that Leland is somehow aware but in denial of what he's doing to Laura. It's clear that Leland, not BOB, is the one sleeping with Teresa Banks, probably because she reminds him of Laura. When Leland sees Teresa with Laura, he panics - because he might be found out or because he realizes what he's done? | |

Rape Leads to Insanity | |
Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me / int_a2bff6bc | comment |
Rape Leads to Insanity: There are suggestions that the specific vision of BOB that we see may come from a man who molested Leland himself when he was a kid, although it's only one interpretation. Much more prominently in Laura's arc. Her sanity is suffering after having been sexually abused by BOB/Leland for years. But also enforced in the interpretation where the Black Lodge is trying to make Laura lose her mind and give in to them (as Leland may have done previously), in which case it may have decided sexual assault was the best way to do so. | |

Double-Meaning Title | |
Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me / int_a4905771 | comment |
Double-Meaning Title: The Movie, Fire Walk With Me. The title refers to Laura's own troubled journey, but also has another meaning. Both Laura (revealed in The Return as the Chosen One) and BOB the Big Bad are associated with fire, alluding to how fire can both protect and destroy - the title refers to commanding its protective fire, made all the more symbolic by Laura's Heroic Sacrifice at the end. | |

The Missing Pieces recopilatory movie of deleted and extended scenes show up more of the rest of the Twin Peaks residents and their little stories that was eventually explored fully in the original series, and its (more or less) Lighter and Softer than Fire Walk With Me, including with Sheriff Truman and co. antics, the Briggs parents, the Haywards, the Big Ed, Nadine and Norma love triangle and more. For people who missed the usual quirky Twin Peaks humor, don't worry, its in here fully. | |

Decoy Protagonist: Agents Desmond and Stanley lead a good part of the film at first... and then Desmond disappears without a trace and Stanley takes Teresa Bank's body back to Ontario. For the rest of the film, we follow Laura Palmer, whose life has already practically fallen apart, and see how things manage to get even worse from there. | |

Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me / int_e11027bb | comment |
Sex for Solace: Laura's crying on Harold's shoulder looks like it was going to turn into this, seeing as she suddenly started kissing him passionately, but then she stopped herself. Possibly due to the Sex Is Evil, and I Am Horny messages in the rest of the film, and Laura's own difficult relationship with her sexuality. | |

Garmonbozia. Annie's message about the Good Dale trapped in the Black Lodge. Carl Rodd and his possible connection to the Black Lodge. Teresa Banks' ring. Blue Rose cases. The Woodsmen. | |
