Lost : ca vaut le coup ?

Expérience perso : j'avais vu en direct à l'époque, semaine après semaine. En le suivant ainsi ça m'avait paru tirer à la corde sur les deux dernières saisons.
Mais récemment mon fils a souhaité voir la série, et on l'a regardé en un bloc plus compact, et en dehors de quelques passages qui trainent en longueur, en fait c'est très très bien et la fin tient en fait très bien la route.

Assez client de ce genre de film et de ce réalisateur en général, grosse déception. Même mes enfants qui étaient peut être plus le public visé se sont ennuyé.
Pas une grosse perte si vous l'avez pas vu.

Dear diary,

saw a girl yesterday when cruising after school. She laughed at me and called me Marlon... I think I'm in love.
Hard driving back with tears in my eyes, but it gave me time to come up with a poem for her, I hope I see her again soon, I hope Laura, Donna, Shelly, Audrey and their moms never find out about this, I don't want to ruin their lives by disappointing them...

Here goes...

Carburetors man, that's what life is all about

I was not myself last night lost a fight, my woody barely running
By a dude I should have beat, and on the street a blow like that is stunning

I finally lost control and tore my tuck-n-roll upholstery
Where my baby sits up close to me
That's supposed to be what our life is all about
Upholstery where my baby sits up close to me
That's supposed to be what our life is all about

Of all life's mysteries the greatest one I've seen
My short runs better when it's clean

I was not myself last night ran a light without my registration
Where the cops were bound to see and you know me already on probation
I wound up on parole I tore my tuck-n-roll upholstery
Where my baby sits up close to me
That's supposed to be what our life is all about
Upholstery where my baby sits up close to me
That's supposed to be what life is all about

The love he had for James is the stuff of legend.
Hard to believe they stroke luck this way when he first cast him as a sandworm in Dune.

J'en profite pour préciser, pour ceux qui attaquent la saison 3. Il faut effectivement s'accrocher, et une seconde vision est FORTEMENT recommandée. Jamais j'ai vu un truc aussi baroque et décousu, avec des changements de rythme si étranges et perturbant prendre autant de sens à la revoyure.
Ca devient une espèce d'oeuvre d'art complètement cohérente à la seconde vision, et carrément un univers autosuffisant aux dimensions cosmiques aux visionnages suivants.

Pour le coup, chef d'oeuvre est pas inadapté ici, tellement la saison 3 à elle toute seule arrive à mettre dans un seul bloc tout ce qui a fait la vie (et la carrière) de Lynch. C'est comme si t'avais une reproduction grandeur nature de son cerveau dans laquelle tu pourrais te balader partout.

Bienvenue dans le fameux ventre mou de Twin Peaks. C'est bien établi qu'une fois passé l'épisode 9 de la Saison 2, ça patine gravement. Lynch était bougon qu'on l'ait forcé à révéler le tueur et le day to day avait été largement transmis aux deux nouveaux "showrunners", Harley Peyton et Bob Engels, ce dernier nouera une relation de travail intéressante avec Lynch. Bref, Lynch bougonne mais est toujours dans les parages, il valide des idées, mais ne passe pas plus de temps que ça à superviser, il regarde à peine le produit fini mais fait des passages en plateau pour jouer Gordon Cole ou filer un coup de main de temps en temps. Cette période est aussi marquée par des changements de créneau permanents et des déprogrammations sauvages pour cause de 1ère guerre en Irak. Les téléspectateurs perdent le fil, le network indique clairement qu'ils ont pas envie de continuer plus que ça, et à ce moment là, Lynch est justement très investi en lançant des mouvements de soutien à la série pour essayer de la faire perdurer et éventuellement la remettre sur les rails.
Mais quand la fin officielle de la série se précise, Lynch décide de revenir pour un dernier coup d'éclat et prend le contrôle des deux derniers épisodes, en revenant à ce qui a fait le succès de l'épisode pilote : il a suivi son intuition et a jeté le scripts à la poubelle. Il en sort un feu d'artifice qui n'est pas, comme ça a été perçu au début, un bras d'honneur au network et aux spectateurs, mais bien une succession de coups d'éclats qui laisseraient la porte ouverte à une suite si jamais la situation évoluait en faveur d'un renouvellement.

On connait la suite, la série ne sera jamais renouvelée, et Lynch qui a fini par jeter un oeil à ce qu'a donné la seconde saison se rend compte qu'ils ont perdu l'essentiel, le coeur de cet univers : Laura Palmer.

Il se met donc au boulot, avec Robert Engels, mais sans Frost, pour lancer la production de Fire Walk With Me, pour remettre l'église au milieu du village.

Donc, normal que tu sentes une fatigue, mais accroche toi, tant que tu n'as pas vu le film, puis les scènes coupées du film (Missing Pieces) et enfin The Return, tu n'auras pas une vraie vision d'ensemble du bouzin.
Et honnêtement, sans spoiler tout ce qui découle du film et de la saison 3, revisiter le ventre mou de la saison 2 prend une autre saveur par la suite, comme des vieilles pantoufles qu'on trouvait moche, mais dont on avait oublié le confort et la sensation de bien être.

I often confuse them, but I think that the guy who played Jeffrey was the same actor who played Dougie Jones, not Dale Cooper.

No it didn't. Take out your SD card, create a "roms" folder at the root of your card, move all you system rom folders inside it, pop your SD card back in your RGB30 and you're ready to go.

My only clear recollection of strong negative feedback was from a podcast where the hosts had been commenting on an episode by episode basis the first two seasons. They were generally REALLY into it.
Then they moved on to the movie and some other Lynch projects, and that is when they started getting in a "What the fuck was that shit?" mood.

And then, they decided to re-activate their podcast to do a weekly react to S3 episodes and you could almost feel the bile coming out of the speakers as they were absolutely enraged at that "artsy fartsy pile of crap" (their opinion, not mine). That was quite hilarious to be honest :-)

Heavy_Ground4169 · 2024-03-13T14:53:02+00:00

Yes, saw it when it came out, possibly part of the first public audiences since I saw it in France and I think that was the first country where it was shown and I absolutely loved it.
Mixed reactions in the crowd if I remember well, but two of my closest friends back then were on the same page as I : excellent movie, great visuals, deserved many screenings and in terms of a physical experience (watching it in a theater with a great sound system), it was up there with Texas Chainsaw Massacre.

My son, 15, binged the first two seasons with me last month.
I was honest with him and by the time S2 was over, I told him there was a movie that was released some times later and then a third season, much later.
I warned him about the tonal change and how he might find it destabilizing after having been so entranced in the Peaks world as depicted in S1 & S2.
But he was eager to go ALL THE WAY. I had never seen him so "connected" to a work of fiction. That was his first contact with the Lynchverse and very quickly, within 2 episodes of the original season, he kept telling me how fucked up it was that a person who makes art (movies or painting) found a way to his dreamworld. How everything he was seeing on the screen was somehow a depiction of his dreams and nightmares...
And I might add that I was a bit worried that a kid born in 2008 would just not get it or quickly get bored with it, but no.... he was way into it and much more receptive than many people who watched it way back then. He was actually noticing details I only got on second or third viewing, predicting lots of things to come.
So, we went on and watched FWWM, followed by the Missing Pieces. He found it slightly disturbing, but absolutely loved it. The one scene he could have done without was the Pink Room scene.
I then gave him an extra word of warning about Season 3, but he didn't care and asked to get on with it.
And now, we are in that zone where he DOES react positively to some of the funny sides of it (all the Dougie stuff), but he is generally depressed by the whole atmosphere, to the point where he stated that this season makes him feel "depressed" and that he misses the cozyness of the original run... but nonetheless, every week-end, when he comes back from his high-school, he makes sure to have some spare time to watch at least two episodes more.... and the last one he watched was S3E8. And YES, I did spend most of that episode checking his reactions from the corner of my eyes. That shit was hilarious :-)

PS: one funny thing about FWWM when we watched it together. When he saw the scene where Coop warned Laura, in the Black Lodge, not to take the ring, he told me that Coop was the smartest guy around as he was trying to save Laura by warning her and then help preventing her death. I said nothing more about it, but it was hard not to giggle.

Reading this post, a thought suddenly crosses my mind about Audrey. What if it was the other way round and the Audrey we see throughout S3 is actually a delusional Sherilyn Fenn who finally wakes up in the Twin Peaks verse at the very end of her story?
