A beautiful Hollywood nightmare
9 May 2021
Conveyed first as a TV pilot, David Lynch's twisted surreal drama is full of metaphor and interpretation which has been debated and analyzed to death by cinephiles and movie buffs (almost as close to Kubick's shining). What almost everyone can agree upon is no matter how much you twist or convolute Mulholland Drive to make sense on what you just discovered , you are assured to get a sense that behind all the characters, plot, act, story and ending, Lynch knew exactly what he was going for and he achieved it in a glorious trepidatious manner. At first you might get a sense of a absurdist drama being directed on screen but by the end if you somehow figure out all the detail and hidden meaning Lynch has left through out each act you will get a grand film noir(as close to Sunset Blvd) ending that you will appreciate with each passing day and viewing leaving a immediate impact on your psyche and Hollywood dream as a whole.
