Twin Peaks
just finished the original run for the third time round and yeah not much to say. so incredibly empathetic to all of its characters and is really getting at something deeply emotional that i’ve never found anything else to be quite so effective at. it’ll really make you feel things you didn’t know you had the capacity for.
the violence of men in this is also so palpable. on first glance it might come across as campy and of its time but only when you let it sit with you do you realise just how terrifying it really is.
and laura palmer? maybe it’s my undying love for fire walk with me talking but the way the show manages to capture her fear and mistreatment in a tangible way without ever even showing her character?? if this show doesn’t leave you with a burning hatred of men then you just didn’t watch it right.
greatest to ever do it.
