why have i never seen anyone talk about how visually similar the bar scene in dreams is to the the “it is happening again” scene from twin peaks? i put them both side by side here for reference, and as you can see the shot composition is strikingly similar. an especially eye catching detail is the usage of spotlights, and how the positions are switched between dale cooper and the giant- given that red is dale cooper in this scenario and roy is the giant. in dhmis specifically, its a visual motif to represent how red is forced to perform no matter what, even if he thinks its something he’s doing for himself. red never actually left the house, and roy’s presence reminds him of that. he never wanted to leave to begin with- dreams is him becoming aware of the cycle that he’s stuck in, a cycle he knows nothing about. he’s confused, terrified, and out of his element. both scenes are very different obviously, but similar in that sense, that they bring a sense of dread to the audience. now i haven’t watched twin peaks as of yet, but i have a bit of knowledge on the show and plan on watching it soon- i’m curious to see what twin peaks fans have to say about this comparison. it’s clear to see that becky, joe, and baker have taken some level of inspiration from lynch’s work and there are a few other examples that are less obvious than this one, but this scene is the most overt in it’s presentation.
