Writing about TWIN PEAKS

So, have you come  up with a topic yet? You may find inspiration from researching your potential sources; then again, you may find it hard to choose source material if you do not have a topic yet! There are so many reviews and articles out there; choose 3 that really sing, or scream, or state things that would never have occurred to you.

Your topic, or a theme that unites your analysis of the writing styles and concerns of these three sources, can be as heady as "Post-Modern Feminism" or "The Law Enforcement Officer as Other" or "Food Fetishizing" or as straightforward as the unique quality of the music score or the surreal nature of the cinematography. Maybe you want to write about the revelation of who killed Laura Palmer. Maybe you'll focus on articles discussing the pending return of the series.

Whatever you choose to focus on, remember that the main point of this assignment is the source material! How these writers convoy their thoughts, what points they make, their style, their VOICE as critics or audience members.
