    Mulholland Drive

    ★★★★★

    I so vividly recall the first time seeing Mulholland Drive. It was four of us in Josh’s frat house room, and I don’t know if I’d ever even heard of David Lynch prior. When it ended, I remember just being a bit speechless, but baffled at how one person in the room simply refused to accept that it was anything other than terrible and incoherent.

    Truly one of the most bizarre and brilliant films ever created. The fact that it exists feels like a bit of a miracle
    I’d say it’s baffling how well this works, but that would be such a disservice to Kaufman’s script. Its spectacle and galaxy-brained out there idea provides the intrigue and hook, but there’s so much buried in the text and subtext about all our feelings of disillusionment and existential malaise. Life has the ability to feel as if…
