- Subj: RE: *Fire Walk With Me*
-
- I can't believe that Michael McDonald actually liked TWIN PEAKS: FIRE
- WALK WITH ME - It seemed to me that Lynch was trying to make the worst
- movie possible on purpose (bad acting, poor editing, incoherent set
- and costume design, medicore music, etc.) - I have a lot of respect
- for Lynch's work _ I for one think that WILD AT HEART is a great movie
- and the stuff people hate about it are exactly the things he wanted to
- show (underscore the excesses of American cinema) - I think that
- put in the context of all of Lynch's work TPFWWM may make sense - It's
- still one of the hworst movies ever made by anybody, but it may be a
- nice footnote to some of the ideas in Lynch's other work - OF course
- Michael may have seen something that I didn't see - The test I think
- will be who will care about this film five, ten, or fifty years from
- now -
