Look, I love FWWM, but that's a brutal way to start. Firstly, it works a lot better if you know TP. Secondly... it's a brutal film. I've seen it a bunch of times and still find some of it hard to watch.

I think that "fire walk with me" poem is so clunky I've refused to watch anything he's ever made.

Great movie, but I'm not sure I would've enjoyed it as much if I hadn't already watched Twin Peaks.

It was panned when it came out (and still inspires downvoting?? not exactly an objective convo here folks) but since then FWWM has gained tons more appreciation.

Family sexual abuse survivors in particular have lauded the movie. It's really DL's most serious treatment of an issue (but makes it harder to watch too).
