Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me Debuts at Cannes Film Festival

David Lynch’s “Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me” debuts at the Cannes Film Festival on May 16, 1992. There were two screenings held for the film, with critics reacting negatively to the screening. The general audience screening, however, was well received. Yet newspapers reported the film was booed at the event which perpetuated a long-held belief that everyone at Cannes disliked the film. There was an elaborate party held on a beach with fireworks and musical performances by Julee Cruise and Michael J. Anderson.
