hasn't this been done?

Rating: 7/10 (17 January 2002)

I'm a bit surprised about the critiques of this movie that have thus far appeared in IMDB. Maybe I'm wrong, but it seems that the contents of Mulholland Drive were already covered in Lost Highway. There are striking similarities in the two movies that no one else has yet commented on.

So, because Lynch didn't have the budget to make the movie he really wanted to with Lost Highway, he simply remade the movie again once he had some more money. It rather angered me that Mulholland Dr. was almost predictable in where the movie was heading for any David Lynch fan. As a fan, I would really like to see some new ideas from him, if he has any.
Now, that being said, Mulholland Drive is a fantastic movie for someone who isn't a Lynch fan. The dream landscape, beautiful camerawork, loss of innocence theme, non-linear plot lines, great soundtrack are all the stuff an art film fan dreams of.
