the above weren't 'theories' as such, more gut feelings and gut thoughts i was having while we were watching... my boyfriend later raised the question of whether sex is intimacy (this is something i simply assume, i tend to say how sex is the most intimate you can be with another person, a joyful, tender abandonment - which cannot be the same for every single person on this planet, and this then raises more questions...)
it was quite good watching it again though, after many many years... it's going to be interesting seeing twin peaks again too, especially as im now a fully fledged european philosopher when it comes to films :)
