Twin Peaks - Série 2

The second season of Twin Peaks actually started as good as the first, but the 4 stars I'm giving it are actually a compromise. i.e., the result of a process in which I slowly but surely distanced myself from the series in its second half, starting from my initial enthusiasm. Lynch couldn't keep his eccentricity and love for the fantastic in check. Step by step, the surreal elements and trips to another dimension were multiplied. The delicate balance that held the world of Twin Peaks together was disrupted. It was absurd and unsettling from the very beginning - after all, that was the reason why I loved the series. But too much of a good thing is too much, and the last and quite insane episode brought the realization that I as a viewer, and Lynch as the creator, were heading in different directions. Overall impression: 75%. (29.08.2017)

David Lynch und Mark Frost spielen ein absolut fesselndes und unglaublich stilvolles Spiel bizarrer Charaktere vor dem Hintergrund des mysteriösen Mordes an einer Schülerin. Was sich ursprünglich als gewöhnlicher Detektivfall in einer kleinen Bergstadt darstellt, verwandelt sich allmählich in ein nebelhaftes Mysterium mit einer dichten und schneidbaren Atmosphäre. Und MacLachlans Agent Dale Cooper ist eine der am besten geschriebenen Charaktere der Seriengeschichte, und Twin Peaks bietet eine breite Palette von großartigen Charakteren. (18.02.2020)
