Twin Peaks: Leland under Bob's Influence (Laughing/Crying Scene)

[Bjarte83]

I love everything in this scene. I love the brilliant acting and movements from the characters. I love the timing and atmosphere the dark music creates. I love the smooth camera movement. I love the way the furniture is arranged in the rooms. I love the dark fir interior. I love how the image with that mirror far away at the end of the scene rises suspense given what we know at that point in the series. Absolutely fantastic scene.

That was acting? He's lucky the producers didn't mistake this for a psychotic break and call an ambulance!

[HLNGR1]

@greyeyed123 well it is supposed to be a psychotic break more or less ;)

[greyeyed123]

@HLNGR1 Oh, I know. I watched this, and every other episode, in '90 and '91. I still have my video tapes! lol (I think there is a still a Dr. Pepper Commercial in there with Sharon Stone before she became really famous in "Total Recall" and "Basic Instinct". She's on a train running around trying to get a can of Dr. Pepper, if I remember correctly. The episodes in '91 all start with ABC News Briefs of the Gulf War.)

Personally, I think Leland is the most twisted, sickest and scariest character ever, counting film and television.

that rapid breathy laugh at 1:02 is the best part of the scene hahaha the way the music starts abruptly

[HLNGR1]

@JoJoShabadoo314 Absolutely agree! Gives me chills every time ;)

[metaguru]

thank you ~ exactly the scene i was looking for ~ what an amazing performance

[DarkeningSkies1]

@metaguru Yeah, it was after Leland became "fully taken over" by BOB that Wise was able to really open up the acting chops. That guy is amazing.

[greyeyed123]

@DarkeningSkies1 I guess the future is NOW.

I found the commercial. It wasn't Dr. Pepper, but Diet Sprite:

@greyeyed123 I think you had intended to reply to HLNGR1.
