Mulholland Drive

Started watching the film last night.
Finished watching it this afternoon (about 5 hours ago)

Didn't give it much thought. Went straight to imdb.com and
found a thorough explanation. I feel like I've ruined the
film for myself now and I've only seen it once.

I'm not boasting, but I feel like I understand about 95% of
the film.

I prefered Lost Highway.

Eraserhead
Blue Velvet
Wild At Heart
Dune
on video.

Seen all apart from Blue Velvet and Dune.

i liked this film a lot, what is your fav lynch film? i
still havent seen the harder to find ones like wild at
heart, hotel room, lumiere, eraserhead. I still need to see
the whole twin peaks tv series and fire walk with me too. i
did see all the others and liked them a lot, its hard to
choose a best one.

I remember my parents talking about Twin Peaks when I was 6
or something. Haven't seen it yet.

I'm gonna watch Dune later on today.
Out of the ones I've seen I'd say Lost Highway was the best.
Eraserhead is just totally fucked up. Did you understand
Mulholland Drive?

Don't expect much from 'Dune'

Dune is kinda a movie you just have to see, it's more an
event than a really good movie to watch, imo

MD though, blew my mind. I was left wondering who was
dreaming of dreaming of what to do when whom did exactly
what they thought they were possibly dreaming about

mind fuck, a fine film

shall i tell you what it's about?

Diane has a lesbian affair with Camilla, who she meets at an
audition - Camilla dumps Diane, meets divorced director,
announces marriage - Diane pays hitman to kill Camilla -
hitman tells her you'll know when the job is done when you
see a blue key in the arranged place... She sees the blue
key, hears a knock at the door, sees a hallucination of her
parents clawing at her - runs to the bedroom, gets out a gun
and kills herself...

I thought I'd give the basic 'reality' behind it, rather
than post a post of many paragraphs detailing the
relationship of reality/fantasy &tc

the straight story really blew me away plus the music again.
That Angelo Badalamenti is one talented man

I've seen almost all his movies - have you seen "the
grandmother"? It sounds very good, and I'd love to see it
released (it would go well if added to the Eraserhead
video/DVD)

that sounds dead weird.
a lonely boy who plants seeds to grow a grandmother.

Yeah _ Mullholland drive is awesome... I think Lynch uses
the dreams in it to stress the illusion / reality ideas
about Hollywood - that everyone thinks it's this wonderful
dream place when it's really all fucked up and corrupt and
horrible. Lynch is a God, Blue Velvet is my fave (oh yeah,
that's probably kinda obvious...) though Lost Highway is
amazing as well. "We've met before haven't we?...."

i love lynch work but fully disliked mullholland drive...
its a poor imitation of his awesomistic film lost
highway...
he wanted money and shit up a bad story with 2 lesbians (and
i love lesbians but...) and he thought he will have big gold
balls then.
silencio silencio what the fuck!!!
its so long too...im wish lynch hasnt lost his artistic soul
with that one!
he should put out some of his old films never seen why not?
something as good as eraserhead wd be nice!
:o,
