The music playing in the Mr. Reindeer scenes in Wild at Heart is "Avant de Mourir", from which the melody was borrowed for "My Prayer", which was used in Part 8.

Simon, feed is working fine now. Great ep as always!
Americans, don't forget it's an hour earlier this week - which is a slightly more manageable 1am our time but sky Atlantic have abandoned the simulcast altogether and are showing it at 3 :-(
While looking this up I also discovered that showtime in the US are doing a marathon of parts 1-16 leading into the finale for anyone who might be interested in the full feature experience

re the audrey scene, I saw speculation that since fenn missed so much of the shoot a lot of the other Horne scenes had to be filmed as though there were no Audrey (without mentioning one way or the other) in case she didn't sign on, which is why her name is mentioned in the Hayward scene but not in the ben or Sylvia ones.
This got me thinking: knowing how lynch likes to make hay from potentially limiting external circumstances, it wouldn't surprise me at all if he made a decision to emphasise her apartness from the rest of the story, both through structure/editing (when and how she finally shows up) and writing (alluding to a storyline with no connection to the richard plot that nonetheless recalls it)
I should stress that I absolutely do not subscribe to the theory that the scene is a coma dream or a film rehearsal or whatever, just that I can see lynch using this for maximum discombobulation rather than trying to smooth over it. Would be a bit of a shame if she had no scenes with beymer, though.

" I absolutely do not subscribe to the theory that the scene is a coma dream or a film rehearsal or whatever"
this is a ridiculous theory. the more I look at people's speculations about things, the more flabbergasted I am.
― akm, Saturday, 5 August 2017 15:18 (six years ago) link
I think it comes of people not being happy with the scene & reaching for ways it might not be real - it's like the dumb "dougieverse" thing, where the Las Vegas material is so stylised that some people STILL need for it to be the matrix, even though that theory basically never made sense and certainly doesn't at this stage

When it's shown in the US, are there ad breaks? Because Sky seem to show it with ads, which annoyed my (I watched it live for the first time last week, rather than downloading it without the ads)
― Eallach mhór an duine leisg (dowd), Sunday, 6 August 2017 11:32 (six years ago) link
nope
― calstars, Sunday, 6 August 2017 11:38 (six years ago) link
Ew, no. That's a huge benefit of it being on a pay cable channel. I can't even imagine.

I watch on now tv - it's available to stream the minute it starts broadcasting on sky - and it has a 1-second twin peaks ident where the ad breaks would be in the live broadcast. It isnt particularly disruptive tbh but it's still annoying, because entirely pointless.
― blog haus aka the scene raver (wins), Sunday, 6 August 2017 16:41 (six years ago) link
When I've watched it live on NOW TV it's had adverts in those sections.
― lilcraigyboi (Craigo Boingo), Sunday, 6 August 2017 16:42 (six years ago) link
Yeah, because that's the exact broadcast people with sky Atlantic are watching - if you use the "catch up" feature to watch it instead, it removes the ads so you'll actually finish watching it before the live broadcast is over. I just find it a bit silly that the "breaks" are still there if the ads are not, even if they only last a second

Ahhhhh. Odd.

what is a lunch release??? or maybe that was a typo but now I am intrigued

Pretty sure that was an auto-corrected Lynch, I wonder how often DL himself encounters that

You famously used to have a milk shake at Bob’s Big Boy almost every day for lunch—what do you eat for lunch now?I have something called Dr. Bieler’s broth. It is parsley, zucchini, green beans and celery, and you cook it and then blend it into a thick, green soup. Dr. Bieler invented it as a kind of purifier, I think, in the 1960s. Then I have seven almonds with that.Why seven?Well, I like the number seven, and so, you know, it just seems like the right amount.

Great episode. And what a way to start it -- I guess when you get sandwich scene/Hornes dancing scene vibes within the first few seconds you know something good's coming up. Evil Cooper in Montana was incredible.

me too, i laughed so suddenly i burst into a dumb coughing fit.
fwiw i didn't buy into the audrey-coma-dream theories at all, but it really looked that way this time.

and i loooooove how they staged the arm wrestling, with mr c assuming absolute power to the extent that he's dicking with his opponent and everyone in the room. i've never seen anything like that before.
in terms of sheer inventiveness, imo this show is doing to television what super mario 64 did to gaming.

on that scene, i'm guessing the actors had no idea a physical fight had broken out in the next room (i.e. it wasn't in the script), so their nonchalance acting was really just two minutes of lynch-directed sitting and looking around

Yeah. It also explains the dual RR diner scenes at the end of ep. 7. One was "reality" the other with the dude running in asking if anyone had seen Billy was in Audrey's dream or whatever.
