Accept the challenge, people

Rating: Null/10 (19 May 2003)

I've decided that David Lynch films are a dividing line between two types of moviegoers, say, the "sheer entertainers" and the "thought provokers." I'd like to count myself in the latter, and Mulholland Dr. is one of the best in that department for its rich metaphors and its extraordinary mind game. If you are in the former group, you should at least like the imagery in Mulholland Dr., but don't go writing its unconventional storyline off to "drugs" or calling the film a "waste of time" before admitting you just aren't up to Lynch's challenge. Mulholland Dr. is a stellar film.
(As per the chapterless DVD--you have to think Lynch did it on purpose, and frankly, i like that game as well...)
