    Mulholland Drive

    ★★★★★

    "Silencio."
    For a good chunk of its runtime, Mulholland Drive feels possibly like David Lynch's foggiest film (up to now in my viewing of his work anyway). The story, the mystery and the characters are all still present and great, but it feels like there's something missing, some heart or bit of clarity to really say something.

    My feelings on the film are a little more mixed than I was expecting. First and foremost, I gotta address what I loved, because there is plenty.

For the most part they feel completely genuine, to the point that their interactions feel like real conversations I've had with my siblings or…
