Fascinating and Fantastic

Rating: 10/10 (18 February 2006)

When you watch Mulholland Dr., you will not immediately understand everything (you might not understand anything). But an intelligent viewer will gather that, though they might not get everything right away, there is at least something to get. There is a structure to Mulholland Dr., there is a rhyme to its reason. What's important to remember is that it is about dreams. And not only those we experience in our sleep. Dreams that are projections of what our futures might have been like, dreams of going back and changing things, dreams of becoming something important and necessary to the world. But as Peter Travers stated in his Rolling Stone review, just "let it take you in." I am confident that if you do let it take you in, with all its colors and beautiful score pieces, etc., you will take from this movie perhaps not a gist of the real plot, but instead what is truly important--the actual feel of a film that is destined to become a classic.
