If I had a nickel for every time I’ve watched Twin Peaks, I’d be dead. As part of my More Missing Pieces series, I’m taking a closer look at scenes from the Twin Peaks Blu-ray set released in 2014. On that set, you’ll find short videos edited around a singular theme (e.g. “the Woods,” “Coffee,”…
Several years ago, we were blessed with The Missing Pieces from Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me.
