A total classic scene that doesn’t get old. I love the brevity and clarity. It’s truly moving.
I’m quite looking forward to Blade Runner 2049. 🙂

All the Great Scenes: Lil the Dancer, Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me
I love this scene in Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me. It’s the strangest way to deliver a coded message.
“A blue rose?”
“Good. But I can’t tell you about that.”
All the Great Scenes: The Thread Will Be Torn, Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me
David Lynch is the master of intensity, and this scene proves it.
There was a stillness.
The sound design in this scene totally makes it. And Ray Wise’s performance as Leland Palmer is brilliant. I think he’s one of the great underrated actors.
Also, Lynch’s seeming obsession with the elderly walking slowly never gets old.
All the Great Shots: Henry’s Stare, Eraserhead
Henry (Jack Nance) staring in David Lynch’s Eraserhead (1977).
This shot is so iconic. I absolutely love the texture in the background and Jack Nance’s hair. It’s the right amount of unsettling.
