    Mulholland Drive feels like a movie where people don’t think they understand it, but they understand it fine. They’re just afraid an English teacher will make them explain that understanding in a book report. Regardless Naomi Watts should’ve won like 10 times as many awards

    David Lynch, visionary filmmaker behind 'Twin Peaks' and 'Mulholland Drive,' dies at 78. > David Lynch, the filmmaker celebrated for his uniquely dark vision in such movies as “Blue Velvet” and “Mulholland Drive” and the TV series “Twin Peaks,” has died just days before his 79th birthday. > His family announced the death in a Facebook post on Thursday. The cause of death and location was not immediately available, but Lynch had been public about his emphysema.

    We tried to watch Inland Empire too soon after Mulholland Drive and husb said Lynch movies are like having a Sanity Meter in a survival horror game but instead it’s a Confusion Meter and if the meter gets too high you have to start the movie again from the beginning.

    Sunset Boulevard still feels like a dream no matter how many times you watch- a surreal fever dream about the death of silent film & the industry that left it behind. It clearly inspired Lynch's Mulholland Drive, & in retrospect the 2 feel like a conversation across decades about Hollywood #filmsky

    MULHOLLAND DRIVE is still my fav movie of the 21st century. It’s another example of an unsolvable puzzle Lynch excelled in making, there are no “answers”. Hay No Banda. It’s like how you can’t “solve” a dream or a nightmare… you can only process it. It means something else to you than it does to me

    it's since become a meme and lost a lot of its power, but the scariest scene in movie history when I first saw it was the Winkie's scene in MULHOLLAND DRIVE. Incredible execution and sold by Patrick Fischler whose flawless performance vibrates on the exact same wavelength as the movie.
