silent runners
Tonight we watched the third episode1 of “Twin Peaks” in the “TV Theory and Criticism” seminar I’m taking this semester. This is probably the most memorable episode since it includes the harrowing scene of Leland Palmer dancing with a photograph of his dead daughter Laura and a dream sequence where Dale Cooper meets a dancing midget. At the end of the screening, I told a fellow grad student, “It never occurred to me that Kyle MacLachlan sort of looks like David Lynch until I watched this again tonight.”
Andy said, “I’ve never seen a picture of Lynch, but he’s such an egomaniac that doesn’t surprise me.”
I told Andy, “He sort of looks like Kyle MacLachlan.”
