just finished twin peaks. terrfic ending, squeezing the tooth paste into the sink, headbutting the mirror, "how's annie?" so so so fucking good. up to that point, less so. big ol' soap. also, super terrible politically. pretty sure annie straight up refers to "indians" as "red men" in her speech about environmental preservation. also, all that miss twin peaks shit is atrocious and pretty completely uncritical. norma is the WORST character. and im glad james got sent away.

lynch is super weird, sure. he has as his subject all this americana gone vile. the black lodge, the pit of all evil, is a nightclub, basically. miss twin peaks becomes a competition to be the devil's wife. but then there's so much love: coffee and cherry pie is the greatest joy in the world, and there's nothing like the relationship between a man and his waitress.
