*** 800th review *** An unexpected (new) journey (web) : « The missing pieces »
3 January 2022
Warning: Spoilers
Well, for 20 years, Twin peaks was finished : no third season, no new movie, no bonus. But, lately, « it's happening again ». First, we got this release of all the famous material that was cut for the movie and next year we will have new episodes !

About this deleted / extended scenes, my first reaction is to wonder why IMDb doesn't treat it like a true and real movie. It had a theatrical projection, it has credits and its duration (91 min) worths it ! Such opportunity is really exceptional and totally never seen before: it's like we have a new movie by itself. Sure, there's no plot in the traditional sense because it's above all cut branches of a tree but it worths watching and it's better to have that than nothing ! At first, i thought it would be a mess but Lynch has made the effort to put the scenes in order so it's really easy to follow what happens. Do the pieces reveal mystery ? Not really in the way that you can discover them literally by reading the FWWM script ! If a lot of them don't forward the story, at least, they bring the mood, the feeling of that particular little town. I really don't know other TV shows in which we follow so closely what happened in those family houses (except maybe some King's novels adaptations).

Finally, i'm very blessed because i'm among the few who discovers Twin Peaks with FWWM. It's because it spoke to me, it punched me that I watched the show after and it was indeed a unique experience. To retrace own steps with such a release now is definitely a new experiment as well and i really wonder what will be the new show about as its main villain (bob) has already left our world while he was the big winner of the last moments of this show !!!!
