Profile of Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me

The mood of Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me is sexual, atmospheric, and mind bending. The plot centers around a dangerous attraction, mind games, and being haunted by the past. It is a thriller and mystery movie. Stylistically, Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me is surreal. In approach, it is serious and realistic. It takes place, at least partly, in a small town. Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me happens in the 1990s. It is based on a TV series. The movie is known for being an award winner. Note that Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me includes drugs/alcohol, nudity, and profanity.

Summary of Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me

Director David Lynch returns to the Pacific Northwest territory that helped to change the face of television in 1990, making him a household name all across America. A predecessor to that series, FIRE WALK WITH ME recounts the final week in the life of Laura Palmer (Sheryl Lee), a sparkling teenager who finds herself caught up in a seedy underworld and is eventually murdered. As Laura abuses cocaine and performs sexual favors for a series of shady characters, she also must balance her day-to-day affairs, which include a best friend, Donna (Moira Kelly), an ex-boyfriend, James (James Marshall), and her parents, Leland (Ray Wise) and Sarah (Grace Zabriskie). Screenwriters Lynch and Robert Engels raise more questions than they answer, keeping the film's mystery ambiguous even by the film's conclusion. While this will most certainly appeal to die-hard fans of the series, it isn't necessary for the viewer to have any prior knowledge of the characters in order to follow the story line, for Lynch's unique vision is enough to keep audiences engaged even when they aren't able to put the pieces together. Haunting, humorous, and strange, FIRE WALK WITH ME is another work of artistry from the mind of David Lynch.

TV Guide

While Lynch ladles on the random weirdness around the edges, it is Lee who keeps the film centered, with a harrowing but poignantly sympathetic portrait of a woman's descent into horror and madness. Full Review

Rolling Stone

Though the movie ups the TV ante on nudity, language and violence, Lynch's control falters. But if inspiration is lacking, talent is not. Full Review

Let me say again that if you're a fan of the series you'll probably feel a little disappointed with the movie. but if you're a fan of the series AND of David Lych you'll understand that "Fire Walk With Me" is an addendum to the series. David Lynch... Read and rate it
