Angel from Home and Away? What is that? OH yeah, I'd be glad to hear some impressions about Lost Highway too.

Home and Away is a really cheesy Aussie soap, like Neighbours. One of the actresses in the film was from this show.

yep i loved that film... just saw it last week and its pretty easy to undersatnd really..... without detracting from it there are a lot of skewed-timeline, abstract, hyper-reality films out now so.... we are becoming used to it in our collective conciousness. Beckett did all this years ago with theatre of course - it ain´t a new idea... (same with novels)

can't see why ppl liked "memento" so much. I found the movie quite annoying myself. But right mulholland drive is a good movie, sadly not the greatest thing I've seen lately but thanks to the excellent music and the artistic shots it kinda makes up for the seen it all before story

My favorite part in lynch movies is the funny guy who was the strange director in Mullholand drive. He was in blue velvet as well, and i know ive seen him in other lynch's as well. He always has some short, strange part. Like clapping his hands and saying "I'm Bill" (or was it bob?) in Blue Velvet. Oh, i think he was the mechanic in Lost Highway too, i forget. Strange guy, anway.

i didn't get mulholland drive at all. there was on the dvd lynches 10 clues to unlocking the movie.. so i looked at them and then i looked at the film but: what has the club silencio to do with anything? what has the man and the monster behind the cafe do with anything? where can i see the rope and what does it mean?

Mush: you're talking about Jack Nance, once of Lynch's best friends (clapping his hand in BV; one of the mechanics in LH, Pete Martell from TP, Henry from Eraserhead). But he was not in Mulholland Dr. He died a few years before it was made.

damn... don't do that... a big part of the fun is to watch the movie, and analyze it yourself...
Do it... it's usually a lot easier if you watch it with friends and discuss it...
Oh, and of course, it's easier if you've analyzed movies before or know how Lynch uses symbolism...
I'm still looking forward to the day I've got enough time to analyze it properly (completely)... hope it'll be some day soon, has been a while since I watched it, but I really like it.

Those links are for the people who have watched it and come to a board saying "I dont get it. What does this mean". It doesn't hurt to gather some of the basic theories in these cases.
Many people can't see how Lynch does his thing, and don't know where to start. It's easy for those of us who know how DL likes to tell his stories.

yeah... I have not seen Lynch's "ereaserhead" yet... that bugs me. It does seem like an interesting movie.
Analyzing movies is just great fun if one knows how to do it (which can be taught just by trying/practicing I guess), but if you don't yeah I guess thoose links could be really valuable as Mulholland Drive is a really nice movie, and becomes even nicer when you know what it really is about...

My god this is freaky.
I just saw it for the first time an hour ago, and I was just going to start a new thread on it...but there was already one there!!
Freaky, freaky, freaky.
Loved the movie, too. Excellent unnerving atmosphere, confusing, sad, just brilliant cinematography. :)

wow. i really dont get how some people dont get this movie. its weird, it makes all the sense in the world to me. in fact, i think its FAR more down to earth than some of his more famous works.

I love the movie, and it has a particular meaning to me.
But at the same time, I think The Straight Story is a great film. It does the same thing with conveying messages that should not be articulated.
To the people that say that they can tell you what Mullholland Drive is about, I would either say that you either didn't get it, or you're far more articulate than I can ever hope to be.

I hear ya jonesy, I noticed Billy Ray and Angel,
just like "The Lost Highway" , lynch always seems to be able to get some great, hmmm well lets say interesting actors in to appear in cameo roles. It certainly seems to add to the whole trippyness experience, that's for sure
btw it was great to see richard pryor in The Lost highway,

I've only seen it twice, but I love the little people scene. After seeing weirdness for, what seemed like 3 hours, this thing just elevates the movie to ultra weirdness. I loved it!
I remember the chick wanking off, she's in another great movie, The Ring. It's like she's hate-masturbating :D
