I remembered that people loved it, and when I saw it in my library here in France I figured I would find out why. It is amazing to me that it caught on as it did - it is so out of the ordinary and it is even amazing it managed to get shown on t.v. n'est pas? But I think it caught the imagination of a sort of young American at the time and part of its fascination was that your parents would never understand which kind of summed up life. I think it is kind of t.v. version of James Joyce - D. Lynch was having all sorts of fun with private jokes and his amazing imagination - and I am sure everything meant something to him, or someone and what you get is what you get!!!!!<br /><br />T.

It'd be like JAWS without John Williams.<br /><br />J.D: I read your Twin Peaks post as well - many thanks for the link back! Seems there are quite a few Peaks fanatics out there, glad to see the love being spread!<br /><br />Edward: I just discovered your site and read your comprehensive ode to TP - really stellar! <br />And your thoughts on the horse- it does seem right about it being symbolic of the horse Laura got from Ben...but who really knows? :)Christine Haddenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16932508146588027867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8237781251652279105.post-2578515814676871662010-04-08T12:11:51.125-04:002010-04-08T12:11:51.125-04:00I felt the horse was probably the one Ben Horne ga...I felt the horse was probably the one Ben Horne gave Laura as a gift when she was a child that she wrote about in her diary. Then again, it could be symbolism for the drugs Leland had been giving Sarah.Edward Copelandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12463676135131274426noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8237781251652279105.post-46514038117827942102010-04-08T11:17:06.378-04:002010-04-08T11:17:06.378-04:00Awesome post on this great show!

You've pretty much listed all the things that made it so memorable and why it still continues to fascinate people.<br /><br />I know some fans of the show hated the film but I really love FWWM and feel that it might be Lynch's best film after BLUE VELVET. He really went for it and showed what he could do with the show freed from the constraints of TV.<br /><br />I've also posted a celebration of the show and linked your post to it.<br /><br />http://rheaven.blogspot.com/2010/04/twin-peaks-tribute-week-april-4-april.htmlAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08164105442273577128noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8237781251652279105.post-33131472078307221052010-04-08T10:52:19.121-04:002010-04-08T10:52:19.121-04:00This is a fantastic piece.

Honestly I have not seen the series since it was on, and am kind of afraid to watch it again as it is such a great, perfect memory.Will Erricksonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16285306262078600804noreply@blogger.com
