Fans of the series "Twin Peaks" are well acquainted not only with his heroes and actors who played them brilliantly. The creators of this picture, David Lynch and Mark Frost, deserve special respect. Their names are interwoven with the history of cinema, and it is worth noting that the former is positioned solely as a screenwriter and producer, while the latter is more of an author, a writer.
Briefly about personality
Mark Frost is an American writer, author of numerous books fanned with a mysterious halo, on the basis of which films were later shot. He is also a screenwriter and producer of most of his own creations. Together with David Lynch, they created a series that blew up the whole world in the early 90's, “Twin Peaks”. He was remembered for his atmosphere, quotes, his atypical storyline. In a fictional town located between two mountains, at first glance ordinary things happen, but it turns out that black magic is behind all this. In all this, Frost’s soul is mysterious, non-standard, and we can say with full confidence that it is arthouse.
The plot of your favorite series
Let's start by recalling what our favorite series was, which was created by David Lynch and Mark Frost. Twin Peaks is a town in the northern United States that borders Canada. It is from this neighboring country that the “trouble” that swallows all the inhabitants of the village - drugs and prostitution - will flood. The series begins with the discovery of the corpse of local beauty Laura Palmer. An FBI agent, Dale Cooper, who owns Eastern spiritual practices, is invited to investigate the murder. Thanks to this, he finds out several mysterious things - “Owls are not what they seem”, “One and the same face” and some others. Thanks to this, Cooper ends up in the Red Room, where he sees himself as old and meets Laura Palmer, who calls him the name of her killer.
In a word, the story has many storylines that are closely related. They are mysterious and for the first time may seem obscure. But the atmosphere of the series, its beauty and surroundings will not let you go until the last minute.
Third season
In the early 90s, the world saw two seasons of the series "Twin Peaks", and many believed that this project was closed. Indeed, the work was stopped, the directors did not return to their previous work for a long time, but a couple of years ago they decided to shake the old days and ventured to shoot the third season. Mark Frost and David Lynch scheduled the premiere for May 2017. The series will feature some stars from a story we know, and with them guest actors who will play new roles. Intrigued fans have been waiting for the release of this masterpiece for a long time, trying to predict the events. But Mark Frost decided to fill their expectation and in 2016 released a book, which became a kind of springboard between the old and new series of the project. Immediately, we note that all the events in it are a complete puzzle, which not everyone will cope with.
Mark Frost: Twin Peaks
The book tells that the FBI gets a certain collection of facts, newspaper clippings, records and diaries, which is called the "Dossier". The person who did all this has not been established, and is conventionally called the “Archivist." Agent Tamara Preston becomes familiar with all this, commenting on the dossiers on his fields and writing down his notes. The book contains countless genuine documents and facts. It describes real people, events, and murders. For example, the death of President Kennedy, UFO mania, the Roswell incident, and many others. But mixed up with facts are fictional stories. And at the same time, the reader can not guess at all whether this was the author or the hero of the book, who at the moment of reading seems alive and real.
What readers say
Those who read this masterpiece claim that in this case Mark Frost himself surpassed himself. The Secret History is a book that from the first pages fascinates with its mysticism, mystery and, most importantly, with familiar characters. One gets the feeling that you are transported to the town of Twin Peaks and live a new story there, meeting all its inhabitants. But then a heap of documents, facts, confessions and sensations, which look like news, newspaper headlines, police archives, fall on his head. Sometimes, in order to understand this creation, it is worth reading twice. And in order for its denouement to become clear, it’s worth waiting for the release of the third season of the series. This is exactly what the author of the book says in response to numerous questions from readers.
