Hi fellow peakers...
This is my first time to post, but I have been reading for about 5
months. Anyway, I FINALLY saw the movie TP FWWM last night, and I now
know what you guys have been talking about!!!
Well, now having seen the movie, and having seen all the tv episodes
(season 1 twice) I am still
**confused**

So, here are my questions (excuse me if they were discussed and
discarded prior to my joining the group!)

1.	What does the creamed corn symbolize? I remember Ms. Tremont
	(sp?) not wanting it on her meals-on-wheels meal, and her 
	grandson making it 'appear' in his hands. And then in the
	movie, the person (BOB, MIke?) eating it from the spoon. (I
	also noticed, this effect seemed to be shown backwards..as tho
	the person was filmed spitting out the creamed corn, and it
	was shown in 'reverse'.

2.	I did NOT understand the reference to the blue rose type of
	case. I don't remember the Laura Palmer case being referred to
	with the blue rose by Cole to Cooper in the series, but I
	might just not remember. Or, is it something purely in the
	film? And WHAT DOES IT MEAN?????

3.	Theresa Banks ring. There has been speculation that the ring,
	symbolizing a circle, symbolizing a circular time line, or 
	that whoever wears the ring is the next to die or something
	like that. But what about the symbols ON the ring? Weren't 
	those same symbols the same ones on the wall of the cave in
	Twin Peaks? (At this time I forget what the symbols meant, 
	except that they inferred something about the white lodge, or
	somthing else mystical. Or am I remembering the those symbols 
	wrong? (Also, someone, maybe cooper, drew the same symbol on a
	napkin in the double R diner at one time...)

Also, the angel in the train car. At first I thougt it looked like
Annie but some of you say it was Laura, some don't. I don't know and I
would have to see the credits and movie again to decide. 
And, the David Bowie part. I figured out that he was perhaps another
agent that was working on an angle of the 'mystical' case/cases (?)
that the FBI seems involved in and that he was at or caught at a
meeting of the folk from somewhere else (I also dislike aliens :), but
anyway, I recognized everyone except for the guy who was in the upper
left hand corner that was dressed in red and looked Japanese (?)
either in hairstyle or mask or something. (I am not referring to the
plain white mask w/ long nose that the boy wears, but that other
guy...) Anyone know who/what that was? Also, I agree with whoever
decided that it was a monkey behind the mask the second time the
grandson moves the mask aside...

*whew*

I guess that is all for now, but I hope some interesting commentary
erupts from my questions, so that at least *I* know what is going 
on!!!

:)
Thanks for listing...er reading!

Susan
