Collected from the virtual pages of beloved film site One Perfect Shot, writer H. Perry Horton dives inside the mysterious and intriguing world of TWIN PEAKS via these 17 essays that cover the themes, elements, links and secrets hidden inside David Lynch and Mark Frost's acclaimed cult TV series. Topics include the influence of Film Noir on the series, the influence of Marilyn Monroe on the character of Laura Palmer, a look at the three loves of Dale Cooper, in-depth journeys into The White and Black Lodges, duality in the series, the role of water, of food, and many more.
Also included is one of the most thorough TWIN PEAKS' episode guides in existence, a section devoted to prequel film FIRE WALK WITH ME, and a series of essays dedicated to the latter's relation to the overall mythology of the series, including the popular analysis of the much-discussed "Phillip Jeffries Scene."
Designed for both the novice and the fanatic alike, BETWEEN TWO WORLDS is a critical and affectionate look at a series that has shaped a generation of television watchers and makers, and that, as Horton argues in the introduction, blazed the first, difficult miles of the path to the present era, which is considered the medium's "Golden Age."
Nothing is what it seems when it comes to the murky world of TWIN PEAKS, but with BETWEEN TWO WORLDS Horton provides a map that cuts through the darkness and illuminates the brilliant method behind all the series' beautiful madness.
