Mulholland Drive (2001) Dir. David Lynch Starring: Naomi Watts, Laura Harring, Justin Theroux, Ann Miller, Mark Pellegrino, Robert Forster, Dan Hedaya, Angelo Badalmenti Wake up pretty girl, we're talking about David Lynch's 2001 mind-bending surrealist neo-noir mystery film Mulholland Drive. After months of waiting, Alex is finally forcing his "David Lynch era" upon the TDBR world, and coincidentally aligning with Austin's descent into hippy-ism with dream analyzation and transcendental meditation up for discussion. This genre-crossing film encapsulates soap-opera drama while also fusing itself with elements of noir, mystery, psychological-thriller, dark comedy, and horror. With top-notch direction, sound design, score, and performances, we'd have enough to talk about for a longer than average podcast - but its multi-layered story and (possible) metaphorical allusions to the lie of the "Hollywood Dream" gives us more than enough to talk about.
