Mulholland Drive is a more accessible David Lynch film than some of his other work - but that still means some weird and wonderful stuff.
The film starts quite conventionally, an attempted murder, a woman with no memory, a would-be Hollywood actress. However, in the middle of the film, things start to become more and more strange - so that I was often wondering whether I was watching a dream sequence or another part of the same story...or even another story.
I'll leave you to decide. It is a film that is not afraid to step outside the usual boundaries and that make it quite unusual compared to a lot of other Hollywood films these days.
In summary, I found it interesting, beautifully filmed, strange and somewhat infuriating in equal measure - but that is David Lynch all over.
