Fire Walk With Me - Part 1 Deer Meadow Prologue

The first installment of our five-part look at Fire Walk With Me begins with the Deer Meadow portion of the film. FBI Special Agents Chet Desmond and Sam Stanley are called in to investigate the murder of Teresa Banks, a drifter whose body washed up on the shores of Wind River. What they discover leads them to believe this is more than your average whodunnit. We're also introduced to the J Edgars in Philadelphia--Gordon Cold, Albert Rosenfield, and Dale Cooper--and meet the mysterious Philip Jeffries, who has a lot to say about a meeting above a convenience store that he claims to have attended... That's a terrible plot description for this part of the film, but really, how else do you summarize ANY part of Fire Walk With Me? We're joined by former guests Aaron, Nathan, and Tasha, who returned to give us their views on the film. We also enlisted the brainpower of two total Twin Peaks newbies--Olivia and Simon--who haven't seen any of the original series and who are here to tell us if Fire Walk With Me can stand apart from the series they have never watched before. Buckle up, Peakies! It's gonna get weird!
