30 years later, a look back on how David Lynch's TwinPeaksFireWalkWithMe shows the ways that evil exploits good.
The cancellation of Twin Peaks left anxious viewers scratching their heads and screaming at the television. That’s it? Special Agent Dale Cooper is now evil, possessed by the spirit of BOB? It was a grim way to end the series at the time, but David Lynch has never been interested in giving the audience the exact answers that they wanted. Any fan that went into Lynch’s 1992 spinoff film, Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me, looking for a resolution probably should have known better.
Yet, this is another investigation that leads to more questions. In the Twin Peaks series, the investigation into Laura’s murder revealed sordid facts about the residents of the town, but it also exposed moments of beauty. None of that hope can be found by prying into Teresa's death. Desmond and Stanley are drawn to the impoverished Fat Trout Trailer Park run by Carl Rodd , and discover a mysterious ring underneath one of the decaying trailers.
Lynch famously didn’t want to solve the mystery at the heart of Twin Peaks. Fire Walk With Me doesn’t change what happened in the series, but it suggests that it was more than just the spirit of BOB possessing Laura’s father, Leland that killed her. This is a town that took advantage of Laura’s kindness, preyed on her weaknesses, and ignored her suffering. It was Twin Peaks that killed Laura, and Lynch shows how each of the characters plays a part in the week of her death.
