In Reply to: "Mulholland Drive", a 2001 noir brain-twisting mystery. posted by free.ranger on August 13, 2016 at 21:14:44:
I think that it's easy for some people to forget that Lynch is in the business of making movies that resemble dreams.Because time and logic in dreams operates sans firm rules, Lynch's methodically "nonsensical" film-making actually makes sense. These are REALISTIC films, in the dream sense, fittingly. Without the jarring effects deliberately introduced, one might be tempted to lapse into daytime (rather than nightime) viewing mode, but doing so would be mostly inappropriate in such cases.
The sequencing of events and the introduction of silly or nonsensical pictorial elements, in "Mulholland Drive", perfectly resembles the type of subjective perceptual sequencing and imagery that could (conceivably) be experienced by the *restless and/or troubled sleeper*. The restless/troubled sleeper fitfully dreams and awakens in intervals throughout the film, and in this case, conveniently and deliberately courts (with the help of a little grogginess) an unwillingness to putting everything into "proper" perspective for the purpose of moral analysis.
It all makes perfect sense when you think about it, really.
