Excerpt from an interview with Melvyn Douglas in 1980 Toronto, taken from Conversations with Classic Film Stars: interviews from Hollywood's golden era (2016) by James Bawden and Ron Miller.
Odd little movie, this - weirdly progressive, given the time and the subject matter, with a fairly strong female lead, some genuine attempts at positive, yet nuanced, representation of native Americans and much talk of the importance of sustainability. How successful it is at conveying these things from a modern point of view is a different matter, and it does get a bit bogged down in the question of whom the protagonist is going to marry, but An Attempt Was Made.
9 Gennaio 1991 veniva trasmessa in Italia la prima puntata della serie televisiva ideata da David Lynch e Mark Frost, "I segreti di Twin Peaks". 🎬 Considerata una delle serie più influenti di sempre, tanto da poter dividere la storia della televisione in un prima e un dopo "I segreti di Twin Peaks", ha influenzato moltissime serie successive, come ad esempio Lost, True Detective, Fargo, I Soprano, X-Files, Riverdale, Black Mirror, Hannibal, Wayward Pines e molte altre. Durante il periodo di messa in onda, grazie alla sua singolarità e al distacco stilistico rispetto ai programmi dell'epoca, la serie divenne presto oggetto di culto, reclutando una vasta schiera di fan. A distanza di decenni, è ancora considerata una delle più influenti nella storia della fiction televisiva. 🏆Tra il 1990 e il 1992 la serie vinse ben 13 premi, tra cui 3 Golden Globes, 2 Emmy Awards e 2 Television Critics Association Award Mostra meno

The immortal doll is a puppet doll similar in appearance to a little boy. After being broken by the Neighbour family, the doll was repaired by Marlin Guppy, who was somehow able to give it additional sentience (as all objects have partial consciousness). It has been speculated that “the paint makes [the doll] immortal because the paint never dries”.
Although the immortal doll cannot speak, while covered in magnets in Part Five of America's Playground it can make an affirmative and negative sound.
When seen in America’s Playground, he is dressed in a little suit with a magnetic suit underneath. The immortal doll is described as long long-limbed and gregarious, leaving a dripping trail behind it. He moves as though he’s falling in a very specific way, as though his limbs are connected by rubber bands, similar to the spider man in Spirited Away.
Known Abilities:
Transporting to a different location
Movement
Getting longer (may be dependent on how many people are looking at it)
"Speaking" (when covered in magnets)
Nikola Orsinov (The Magnus Archives):
Nikola Orsinov is a recurring character in the Magnus Archives and is either an acolyte or an aspect of The Stranger. She appears as a plastic female mannequin dressed as a circus ringmaster, although she can disguise herself as human using stolen skin and a 'borrowed' voicebox. She is the main antagonist of Season 3.
(Sorry for lack of audio propaganda. The Magnus Archives is the most well-known of these anyways.)
Persnickety Pete (The Bridge):
Persnickety Pete aka Parsnip Paul aka Pretentious Pierre aka Particular Pietro is a ventriloquist dummy and mayor of Ocean View.
Persnickety Pete has vacant eyes, a creepy smile, and a tux, like one would expect a ventriloquist dummy to look. He was part of a new act for Ocean View's Triton's Follies, where he cycled through a variety of partners (who he most likely killed). After an issue with the Actors Association, he was declared mayor of Ocean View, purging all of the actors in the process.
He attacked Frank Hayward for disrespecting him and turned the man's arm into something that resembled a crushed tomato.
Persnickety Pete is a showman, and while he is both creepy and violent, he puts The Show above all else. He becomes easily upset when people aren't nice to him, and will lash out.
He likes to try to convince people to put him in front of mirrors.
(The work assembling the song from the clips in the episode was done by @greerbaiting and you can reblog the audio by itself posted by them.)
Inspired by @the-puppet-bracket and a post by @equalseleventhirds!

Lots of actors in Twin Peaks have some sort of connection to each other, to others actors, or had worked with Lynch before Twin Peaks.

There's also Stephen Gyllenhaal who directed episode 27 who is Jake and Maggie's Gyllenhaal father.
There's also some Twin Peaks actors whose children are now famous. Such as Peggy Lipton, who played Norma Jennings, her daughter is actress Rashida Jones, her father is legendary music producer Quincy Jones. Mary Jo Deschanel, who played Eileen Hayward, is the wife of Caleb Deschanel, who directed three Twin Peaks episodes. Their daughters are Zooey and Emily Deschanel. There's also Russ Tamblyn, who played Dr. Jacoby, he' the father of Amber Tamblyn.
Eric Da Re, who played Leo Johnson, is the son of Twin Peaks casting director Johanna Ray.
Robyn Lively, who played Lana Budding Mildford, is the half-sister of Blake Lively.
Miguel Ferrer, who played Agent Rosenfield, was the cousin of Goerge Clooney.
Jack Nance, who played Pete Martell, collaborated with Lynch in Eraserhead when he played the lead role and had minor roles in Dune and Blue Velvet. Kyle MacLachlan, who played Agent Cooper, played the lead roles in Dune and Blue Velvet. Frank Silva, who played Bob, worked on the set of Dune, Blue Velvet and Wild at Heart, Catherine Coulson, who played the Log Lady, did assistant camera work on the set of Eraserhead. Everett McGill, who played Big Ed, Grace Zabriskie, who played Sarah Palmer and Charlotte Stewart, who played Betty Briggs, also had small roles in Lynch's early work.
