Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me

Through the darkness of future past, the magician longs to see. One chants out between two worlds... fire walk with me.

When David Lynch's megahit series Twin Peaks was cancelled after two seasons, people eagerly awaited the announced feature film. Responses were decidedly mixed, however, on the finished film, controversial as it was for missing lots of key series regulars and for focusing almost exclusively on the last week of Laura Palmer's life. Despite an outstanding performance from Sheryl Lee and Lynch's signature stylistic flourishes, Fire Walk with Me was greeted with mostly negative feedback.

This week, we continue our Lynch series by revisiting that film and trying to uncover its value in light of its subject matter. We're joined by friend of the show Steven Beckley and feature a Patron-only segment featuring a chat between Reed and Nathan about episodes 8 & 9. Whether you've been following our chats from the beginning or whether this is your biggest prompt yet to do so, we hope you enjoy this look at "who killed Laura Palmer" and the legacy of Twin Peaks.
