Viewing Notes

Very much my kind of weird. I’ve only seen the Twin Peaks pilot movie but this film feels like what the tv series is doing. Jennifer Jason Leigh should’ve been a bigger star but it’s cool she was able to do movies like this. I want to revisit with the commentary by Chapman and Peter Coyote.
