The old Twin Peaks was a fun satire as well as trailblazing storytelling. It's almost unbelievable that he was able to get that on network TV in the 90's. That said, the new Twin Peaks is on another level. Taken as one work, it is probably Lynch's masterpiece, with only Eraserhead and Mulholland Drive as possible challengers.
The ****ing balls on this guy. And good for Showtime for giving him this kind of freedom. I hope it pays dividends for them as far as attracting top talent to develop content for them. |

One of the things I love most about Lynch's work is how it can rattle me to my marrow. Virtually every one of his movies/shows has had that effect on me at some point during the experience. Mullholland Drive, Lost Highway, Inland Empire, Wild at Heart, Blue Velvet... they've all scared the shit out of me. Same with the original Twin Peaks, FWwM and the new season. Lynch is tapped into something so deep and primal and raw. It's horrifying, fascinating and gratifying all at the same time.

Yeah. Good call. I could see it either way. I don't know which one Lunch would pick out, but his movies seem to have several "eyes of the duck". Lol.
Side note : I rented the DVD of Inland Empire years ago and watched it. As it was going I was like "ok this is too weird even for me" and "Jesus Christ how long is this ****ing thing?". After about 3 hours, I snap and turn it off. Next morning, I take the DVD out and realize I had been watching the incredibly long collection of deleted scenes. It was one of those two sided DVDs with special features on one side and it auto played when I put it in. As a Lynch fan I had to laugh that I spent 3 hours thinking this nonsensical string of images and scenes was the movie. I also, of course, felt like a ****ing idiot, but at least I didn't watch it and come out praising it as a masterpiece either. The rental had expired so I had to return it and still haven't seen the movie. Only one of his I haven't seen. Lmao |
