    Kind, sincere, with just the right touch of eccentricity; found family trope (which I absolutely adore) portrayed here wraps around you like a warm embrace. The comfortable post-watch feeling leaves you smiling softly, grateful for the little joys and human connections in your own life. It gently reminds you that no matter how heavy your heart feels rn, there’s always an opportunity to begin again

    Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me

    ★★★★★

    It's an incredibly depressing session of mental pain, almost torture, observing the life of a girl who's been through so much fucked up shit that it hurts like you've been through it yourself. In my opinion, this is the case when watching the piece of psychological horror really breaks something in you internally. Laura Palmer is one of the most tragic characters I've witnessed in the media. It is the knowing her ultimate demise that makes watching her last days…
