Mulholland Dr. (2001) 6/10

Starring : Justin Theroux, Naomi Watts, Laura Elena Harring, Ann Miller, Robert Forster
Director : David Lynch
Running Time : 141 mins

When Rita (Harring) survives a terrible car crash on Mulholland Drive, she develops amnesia which results in her having no idea what caused the accident or if it was intended to kill her. With the help of a perky actress, Betty Elms (Watts), she tries to investigate what really happened to her and, indeed, who she actually is.

As with anything written and directed by David Lynch, this is thoroughly confusing and filled with random hallucinatory scenes that really make the viewer feel uncomfortably baffled. Fans of Lynch will like this attempt to relive some of the popularity of Twin Peaks, but those who either aren’t familiar or are completely adverse to Lynch’s style should simply not bother.
