Anyone seen this movie ? I saw this flick last night and it's the most random movie I have seen. For those in love with Naomi Watts, she bares all waist up.
Pretty twisted, will have to watch it once again to figure out what the heck is going on

Re: Mullholand Drive
extremely weird and hard as hell to follow movie, theres soooo many theories on this movie it isnt even funny, i personally thought it was sloppy and all over the place, not cohesive at all. David Lynch has done much better imo.
Re: Mullholand Drive
good movie
Re: Mullholand Drive
great show
Re: Mullholand Drive
This movie is pretty cool. I like Blue Velvet though; well you know what i like them all. The creepy factor in all lynch's movies is always high. i always get that kind of uneasy feeling
Re: Mullholand Drive
too many theories to keep up with
Re: Mullholand Drive
Lost Highway was much better than this flick imo
Re: Mullholand Drive
yeah lost highway was better, but both are good
Re: Mullholand Drive
I think Eraserhead is still one of his best movies up until now. Plot: "Henry Spencer tries to survive his industrial environment, his angry girlfriend, and the unbearable screams of his newly born mutant child." Need I say more?
Re: Mullholand Drive
yep eraserhead is a classic. he has a new one coming out called INLAND EMPIRE (i put all caps, because the movie is titled in all caps)
twin peaks = best tv show ever
Re: Mullholand Drive
can't wait for inland empire!
Re: Mullholand Drive
I love this movie.... The simple explanantion is...
Everything until the cowboy comes in and says time to wake up is a dream/fanatasy of Naomi Watt's character of an innocent perfect love between her and the other woman.
After that is when you hit reality and she is masturbating while crying on the couch with the key on the coffee table indicating that she has had her ex-lover murdered for leaving her for the director guy...
FUN :)
Re: Mullholand Drive
This is a must see movie. Its one of the most confusing movies ever made and there is no doubt Lynch is a genius. 8)
Re: Mullholand Drive
Lynch is a talented, but STRANGE mofo.
Re: Mullholand Drive
it will be interesting to see what he come up with in this one

it's the simplest of lynch's movies to understand...along with lost highway and blue velvet.
i still don't get twin peaks though :what
Re: Mullholand Drive
it's a must-see movie just to be able to know what others are talking about...but the story just doesn't make sense. Some people like this, but I don't...

well the "swicth over" from "dream" to "reality" is absurdly quick. Throws it all off the contemplation charts

A - Duh, it's a Lynch movie
B - The cowboy does come in and say, it's time for you to wake up.

A. It doesn't matter who the fuck directed it, you can still be an awesome director if you add a touch of clarity to the direction. I dont consider myself a weakling on the IQ scale but this was a little off the rationality bridge. A GOOD direction is one where even if the length of the movie is jumbled beyond comprehension, the ending is impactful enough where all the jumbled pieces actually fall back in place. 2 PRIME examples are Stay / Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. This one was not even in the same league.
B. The cowboy coulda taken his pants off and pole vaulted onto the bed to wake up Ms. Watts, it was still unclear that it actually switched over from dream - real (I was also doing a major site migration for a client and could have added to my distractedf mind, but still).

You must accept that david lynch isnt going to be very followable, and then you wont be so dissapointed.
also, it helps to get really high. Not for movies, just generally.
Re: Mullholand Drive
:lol:
thanks for the golden words....
Re: Mullholand Drive
Mulholland Drive? One of the strangest movies I ever saw. To be honest... I didn't get it :S
Re: Mullholand Drive
i wouldnt say it was "easy" to follow... anyone who says they knew exactly what was going on is full of it imo.
Re: Mullholand Drive
no kidding, and does anyone know what happened to those 2 guys who met at the diner in the beginning of the movie and one of them dies as he walks around the corner and sees that ..... thing ?
Re: Mullholand Drive
Thats just a monster in back of the diner, duh... :)
Re: Mullholand Drive
it's just pure David Lynch..
the first part of the movie is just the mental masturbation of Naomi Watts.. the true happenings are the last part. Lynch tried to figure out this with very weird theories.. but rather than the Lost Highway, he just thought that "how can i make a movie more complicated" and suceed it..
Re: Mullholand Drive
nice flick, but Lost highway is much more fucked up and Grandmother, Lynch is just crazy, but still genius!
Re: Mullholand Drive
good one, but eraserhead is still a masterpiece.
people say inland empire is even more confusing ^^
Re: Mullholand Drive
Wasn't the first part of this movie an unfinished pilot for a TV series that was scraped ?
Re: Mullholand Drive
That creepy person behind the diner scared the shit out of me.

I didn't see this mentioned, but another clue it's a dream is she's having is at the very beginning of the movie you see a pillow in first person view and someone passing out on a bed. This is the Naomi Watts character passing out until the Cowboy tells her to get up.

that are just lynch tricks, where point is that there is no point in that scene.
Re: Mullholand Drive
Anyone seen Rabbits? that thing is pretty cool. Grab it if you get the chance ;)
Re: Mullholand Drive
