Twin Peaks
Andrew and I had a Twin Peaks marathon over the break. I finally watched the series years after watching the pilot and Fire Walk with Me. Before Andrew introduced me to the series, I've only known about it through ABS-CBN's "Who killed Laura Palmer?" promo. I remember wanting to watch the series because it intrigued me, but the airing, if I remember correctly, was already late (10 or 11 was late for me when I was younger).
David Lynch is a genius in developing characters and churning out weird plots. I love what he did with the Leo Jonhson (Eric Da Re) character because it was so unexpected. I didn't think I'd feel any sympathy towards the character but David Lynch almost made me cry with what he did with Leo at the end.
David Lynch's character, Gordon Cole, really made me laugh though. My favorite David Lynch moment was his diner scene with Shelly Johnson (Madchen Amick). They looked so cute together! Andrew told me that David Lynch almost didn't hire Madchen Amick because her audition wasn't very impressive, but the producer told him to hire her because she's pretty. Itty bit of trivia, Madchen Amick played the role of the duchess--the one who had an affair with Nate--in Gossip Girl.
I'm so addicted to Twin Peaks that I want to order a second copy of the definitive gold edition (the gold edition we have was my birthday gift to Andrew). I wish I can also find a copy of Fire Walk with Me and Laura Palmer's secret diary. If anyone of you happens to see a copy, please let me know. I'll be eternally grateful :)
