Information About

Albert Rosenfield




Albert Rosenfield is a fictional character in the Cult Television series '' Twin Peaks '', portrayed by veteran actor Miguel Ferrer . Rosenfield is an FBI Agent and Forensics expert brought in to apply his extraordinary forensic skills to the case of Laura Palmer 's murder, and the linked murders and violent events.


ROLE IN ''TWIN PEAKS''


Albert quickly made fans among viewers, if not townspeople, with his extremely sarcastic and wittily abrasive manner.

Rosenfield alienated the Twin Peaks sheriff's department relatively quickly, mocking Andy , and enraging Sheriff Harry S. Truman to the point where Truman lost his temper and punched Rosenfield. He also rowed with Doc Hayward , and was very disparaging about the capabilities of the local police and medical facilities in Twin Peaks generally, showing respect only to his FBI colleagues.

A later appearance, and another conflict with Sheriff Truman, led to an emotional moment where Rosenfield exposed a sensitive and peace-loving side, seemingly at odds with his acerbic surface Persona and to the complete shock of the sheriff and viewers alike. Such complex, contradictory characters were typical of Twin Peaks and the works of David Lynch in general.


QUOTES


  • "While I will admit to a certain cynicism, the fact is that I am a naysayer and a hatchetman in the fight against violence. I pride myself in taking a punch and will gladly take another because I choose to live my life in the company of Gandhi and King . My concerns are global. I reject, absolutely, revenge, aggression, and retaliation. The foundation of such a method, is love. I love you Sheriff Truman"
