Laura Harring: a cruel lover

Rating: 3/10 (11 May 2013)

Mulholland Drive is basically a master-clinic on the horrors of ones reality becoming indescribably different or foreign, and of comforts that reveal themselves in tragedy or agitation. The story is alinear to say the least, and takes place entirely in the fantasy life of niomi watts who cannot tell fact from fiction. Not ironically, her obsession is a woman on the brink of a terrifying eureka, about the events of her life which are esoteric and completely unknown to her. The fractured plot flows effortlessly because of the unified feeling it conveys. However, the fantasy climaxes in antithesis with the crushing blows of Laura Harring, a cruel woman who only toys with Niomi's hearstrings. A bold piece of work, an interesting love story.
