Ha ha! You have to approach Lynch films like a puzzle to be solved. It's what makes them so fun.

I completely agree. His films are so captivating. You have to go in with an open mind and they definitely require multiple viewings. Mulholland Drive is my favorite Lynch film. The first time I saw it I was certainly lost. but I have seen it several times after that and each time it gets better and better. The writing is excellent and the acting is also superb.

Mulholland Drive is one of his more, I don't want to say "easier" ones to understand but not as cryptic as others. It finds a happy medium I believe because it still leaves so much to interpretation. My favorite scene in the film is the "Theater of Silence" scene where the reveal transition occurs. I have been enthralled with Lynch films since I saw Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me back in the early 90s and have been gobbling up as much Lynch as I can get my hands on. They are most definitely for the advanced film enthusiast and it is comparable to high art in the sense that the general public is like "This looks like shit" while the snooty art connoisseur would be like "Ah! This is genius!" . If you are a beginner in Lynch I highly suggest starting with Wild At Heart and then perhaps Eraserhead and then the Twin Peaks series. I have ben trying to take in Inland Empire but that is definitely advanced Lynch 303 and very difficult to take in. If you thought MD was wacky then I would avoid that one for now.

My approach to Mulholland Drive is the opposite: I don't feel the need to 'understand' or solve everything.
I always feel like everything makes perfect sense while watching it, but if you'd ask me to explain it all afterwards, I probably couldn't. I guess that's why I find Mulholland Drive so captivating. I could watch it over and over again :)

I think you should approach it as a dream, not to be analysed logically or in a nerdy way, but just go with the flow and get immersed in the mood and atmosphere...
it works so much better that way... and it's something rare that is not as common in current films, the dreamlike experience that you can just fall into...

I also feel the dream interpretation is a cheap, gimmicky, soap opera-ish trope that I highly doubt Lynch would lower himself to. So even before I was enlightened by the article Invidia showed me I knew Lynch was above that. I was actually surprised he even gave an answer either way. I think that speaks volumes to how he feels about the "dream interpretation" . It was insulting enough in his eyes to break his usual silence that he usually displays when asked about his film's interpretations.

Exactly. I still don't understand the damn movie. What the hell was it all about? Anyway, I re-watch it just was the leads getting it on partway.

i think, in the most simple terms, this is a tragic lesbian love story. a woman so devastated that a woman she love doesnt love her that she created an elaborate fabrication that ruptured when the box was being opened.

You mean Naomi Watts? I figured you would be more intrigue with her furious masturbating scene. 😄
