It’s October. It’s fall. It’s about time to go into Twin Peaks mode again. Right? This freshly squeezed 15-minute short film, “Between Two Worlds,” will get you in the right mood.
Written and directed by Cameron Miller, who describes himself as a visual storyteller with a passion for capturing wonder through film, photography, and writing, this Twin Peaks fan film follows the journey of Dale Cooper, portrayed by a dashing Justin Hughes, and his white coffee mug from the ethereal realm of The Fireman’s Home by the Sea to the Log Lady’s cabin in Ghostwood and spiraling back to the Red Room. His mission? To find the perfect brew.
Even though it was shot in Augusta, Georgia, the Twin Peaks references are plenty and beautifully shot. The meticulous editing as well as the carefully chosen cues by Angelo Badalamenti and the enveloping sound design, succeed at catching that quintessential mood. Yet, in my opinion, the most interesting part of this fourth-wall-breaking homage happens after the closing credits. So make sure to linger until the end, and let this love letter unfold in its entirety.
To David Lynch and Mark Frost, thank you for giving us the strange and wonderful visuals of Twin Peaks. This homage is to pay tribute to you, the crew, and the cast of the series that changed television.
