The disappearance of Chester Desmond - the Owl ring - the nightmare of Annie Blackburn ("I'm Annie. I've been with Laura, and I've been with Dale...") - and the very, very strange nature of this scene YOU THINK I'M MAD. OVERWORKED. GO AWAY.are all part of a continuum. Phil Jeffries (who is not going to talk about Judy) spells it out for us: "We are living inside a dream."<BR/><BR/>Heady stuff. Bryan wants all his Garmonbozia - no, wait, I AM THE ARM, AND I SOUND LIKE THISwe have plenty of that at the office. He's been bugging me to resume my attempt to write <I>The Bookhouse Boys</I>. It's one of Gordon's Blue Rose cases, but IF I TELL YOU THESE THINGS, AND THEY TURN OUT TO BE TRUE, THEN WILL YOU BELIEVE ME?I can't tell you about that.

I mean, Lynch isn't the most 'light filled' of directors. But the meeting! Of course you really haven't appreciated this scene unless you've heard Seb imitate the little man.<BR/><BR/>And I'll still maintain that the movie is the worst of the various Twin Peaks installments (first season being best, second being second). <BR/><BR/>John, the problem with your County Fair idea is how much of it is stolen from "Eraserhead." But then I think you already know that.<BR/><BR/>ANCIANTAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6938931586617910694.post-71635811868851122562008-05-20T12:17:00.000-07:002008-05-20T12:17:00.000-07:00Who do you think this is there?Let's rock.Who do you think this is there?<BR/><BR/>Let's rock.Sebhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02897192617824413929noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6938931586617910694.post-40373445228845394222008-05-19T16:34:00.001-07:002008-05-19T16:34:00.001-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.Johanneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14117957759676479212noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6938931586617910694.post-90148233674080284762008-05-19T16:34:00.000-07:002008-05-19T16:34:00.000-07:00I'm so mad right now.
