Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaRichard Beymer (Ben Horne) declined to participate due to a scene where Ben was to force Laura to kiss him in exchange for a bag of cocaine. Beymer felt that there had been no buildup for the character of Horne (who confesses his love for Laura in Twin Peaks (1990)) to extort Laura, and that as a result the scene came off as exploitative. As a result, another scene, in which Leland Palmer (Ray Wise) confronts Ben about Laura's photo being on Ben's desk, resulting in a fight with Ben's wife, was never shot. The scene also would have included Johnny and Jerry Horne.
- GoofsThe cabin scene at the film's end differs vastly from its depiction in the series. In the film the cabin has no red drapes, there is no phonograph left playing, nor does the exterior of the cabin even appear to be the same. Also missing/omitted from the narrative of this sequence: - No Leo's bloody shirt. - Waldo never leaves the cage and does not draw blood. - No broken One Eyed Jack's casino chip or "Bite the big one, baby."
- Quotes
Donna Hayward: Do you think that if you were falling in space... that you would slow down after a while, or go faster and faster?
Laura Palmer: Faster and faster. And for a long time you wouldn't feel anything. And then you'd burst into fire. Forever... And the angel's wouldn't help you. Because they've all gone away.
- Alternate versionsThere is an unofficially released extended cut of the film titled 'Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me - The Extended Blue Rose Cut' which restores an hour of deleted footage formerly only found as bonus content on previous releases. This edition of the movie has a 196-minute runtime.

Featured review
The most underrated movie of the 90's
This was one of the most critically panned movies of the decade, but only because the world's film critics are too full of their own self-importance to bother watching a masterful TV series like Twin Peaks. All Twin Peaks fans know that this movie is monumental enough to transcend criticism, sure it makes no sense to those who have never seen the TV series, but those people have never lived anyway. Twin Peaks: FWWM, brings a genuine sense of tragic martyrdom to the death of Laura Palmer, as well as being one of the scariest, most surreal and atmospheric movies ever made. Never seen Twin Peaks? Watch the TV series on video first, and then see this incredible prequel.
