The extras documentary on the new ‘Twin Peaks’ gold edition box set is worthy of praise if only for one extraordinary scene midway through, as Angelo Badalamenti remembers his and Lynch’s collaboration on the haunting ‘Laura’s Theme’, recalling how excited the director became as Badalamenti picked out the piano line, becoming almost tearful as he relives what is clearly a defining moment in an extraordinary career. Otherwise it’s pretty standard stuff: fascinating, required viewing for those of us still in thrall to what may yet prove one of the 20th century’s great works of art, completely dismissable for the rest of the population (or as I like to call them, ‘suckers’).
