Review of Part 17

Twin Peaks: Part 17 (2017)
Season 1, Episode 17
10/10
A stunning first part to a two part finale
12 September 2021
Warning: Spoilers
The episode starts of leading us to believe there will be a happy ending to this story. All the plot threads are converging and the big battle between good and evil is finally here. Freddy (the gloved guy) has a fantastic showdown with Bob (who takes the form of a massive floating black orb with bobs face in it) and everything seems good.

Then the second half kicks in, which is pure unadulterated Lynch for the last half hour of the episode. Cooper sets off on a journey through time to try and save Laura, resulting in some really interesting scenes that showcase both the convenience store and fire walk with me. I'm not entirely sure how they filmed these scenes but they were fantastic. We also get some explanation as to who Judy is, though I still don't entirely understand it.

Overall 10/10, probably my favorite up to this point. Excited to see how part 18 wraps everything up!
