Review of Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me (1992) by Alexander N — 14 Apr 2011

I'm not sure what David Lynch was thinking here. Revisiting "Twin Peaks" was a great idea. Betraying and destroying it was not. Still, there is something to be said for the effectiveness of this brutal, sledgehammer to the face of a movie about the final days of the oft tortured Ms. Palmer.

However one may feel about the film in comparison to Twin Peaks, the ending is undeniably great. Laura, perpetually trapped in purgatory since the age of 12, deserved release more than almost any modern character I can think of and and Lynch found a rather beautiful way of finally giving it to her.
