... and he said "I saw some creamed corn in the cafeteria today and I just had to include it!" But what I wonder is if it was also his idea to have a different, presumably unrelated Tremond woman living in the house a few episodes later - even though he didn't write or direct that episode...

I was just thinking about how the Tremonds thing - showing up at the house and having it inexplicably be a completely different lady - feels very Lynchian. As does, in theory at least, Laura's diary entry, the giant giving the ring, and some other stuff. More than ever I wonder if/how Lynch had any...

Homeboy Sandman -- Illuminati (from Chimera)

Actually, the 'B' roll and outtakes from Eraserhead were stored at his home in a tool shed in Virginia, and while he was filming either 'Dune' or 'Blue Velvet', his then wife Mary Fisk had a lot of Dave's stuff taken to the dump, and this included all the material from 'Eraserhead'. He considered h...

I do remember there being sort of a gendered response at the time--my women friends were freaked out in a way that the men I knew were not. I have no memory of media coverage, and of course, the internet wasn't in wide use at the time. I just remember friends' reactions because we'd usually watch i...

The song and Jimmy's appearance in the black lodge are one of the (many) defining Twin Peaks moments for me, it's just pure awesomeness :-) Big Jimmy Scott, what an unexpected surprise. That performance gets more and more meaningful each time I view the film. I've often wondered how instrumental a ...

This recap of the finale in particular pretty much broke my brain: http://birthmoviesdeath.com/2012/11/21/tv-timewarp-twin-peaks-episodes-2.21-and-2.22 Has anyone else had this experience? Or been annoyed by other articles which seemed to miss what Twin Peaks was really all about? My condolences to...

I continue to hope something will be worked out. But yeah, this doesn't look great right now... Clearly something went wrong with negotiations and/or communication between her & Lynch/Frost (or Showtime, I guess, but I feel like indications from people in these forums have been that it's Lynch/...

Be that as it may, David Nevins and Showtime are not going to touch the story or creative process of TP because Lynch will never stand for it. And they know from experience he will raise hell if they interfere. They have rolled the dice and, in this very rare case, that means standing back and doin...

You're hitting it on the head when you speculate the decision to design S3 as a capable stand-alone for the benefit of the un-enfranchised (er, newbies), or be dependent on prior education (ergo, newbies scratch heads), is a big decision. I suspect the former is their inclination, although that mea...

That's going to be part of it obviously, but there will be a certain number of brand new viewers no matter what. I don't know that the new season won't be something you absolutely need to have seen the previous installments to grasp, but that may affect how it is received. The majority of critics w...

OK, just the Pilot. He's typing this in Notes for later cut and paste into the thread, hoping that this too-intimate feeling of sharing won't be too strong when it's time to hit Submit. It may take several weeks, a lot of nerve, and quite a few scotches to get that Submit button. Reading everyone's ...

How does Tremayne afford a BMW with the salary of a clothing salesman? How does Diane get the tapes from Cooper? How did they never find the drug dealer that Bobby killed in the woods? What happened to the One Armed Man after Ep. 16? I know this post is from quite sometime ago but I have some educa...

The short was posted somewhere on this forum when it came out. I saw absolutely nothing in it suggesting a sour relationship between Goaz and Lynch. Like N. Needleman has suggested, I see a humorous sad-luck tale skewering actors and Hollywood, not to mention artists and the art world. Goaz is not ...

What is the controversy with his performance? I personally loved it. And I'm in full agreement. He created an enigmatic character which, at the time, had not been successfully executed or barely attempted by others: idiosyncratic, devout, masculine, tender man. It was another Lynch/Frost vanguard--...
