Get your wish

I've been wanting to see this film a few years ago, and I can't remember why I wanted to see it at the time, but I remember a comment about it, saying that the judges of the film festival said that David Lynch had gone too far, the plot was too obscure and difficult, and it was not easy. Look in and wait.

In short, in my impression, this is a textbook-style movie that needs to be studied. So although I finally bought it that day, I didn't dare to take it out to look at it several times.


Anyway, today, I can't help but watch it.


I finally couldn't help but say:


who said it was obscure! ! ! !


Totally understand! The first half is full of Diane's dreams, in which sometimes Betty is Diane, sometimes it's Camilla, and sometimes it's even the paralyzed old man in a wheelchair who rules everything.

In the dream, she realizes those wishes that she could not realize in reality, beautiful and sinful. Basically, betty and rita switched the relationship between Diane and Camilla in reality, and betty became a strong rescuer, and was admitted to the strength of the performance, humiliated and took revenge with the story of his wife cheating with the cleaner. Camilla's director Adam, she hired a killer to kill Camilla, but she didn't want to face the reality of Camilla's death, so she asked the old man to say: The girl is not dead yet, and called one by one, and finally notified Diane herself (phone under red light). Let a girl named Camilla but Adam very despise take away the heroine's position, there must be some intention behind it.

Of course, the Silence Bar is very crucial, it is not only Diane reminding himself in the dream, but also the movie reminding everyone: everything is an illusion, this is just a dream. (At least I often do this in my dreams. Whenever I dream of entering the exam room and realize that I have nothing to recite, or I dream that the train has not caught up, I will tell myself, it’s okay, this is a dream, and then continue to dream. , haha.) That part of the audition made me wonder if Dianne had any childhood shadows, otherwise she would not use such content as a script for the audition for no reason.

If you have the opportunity to look at all the plots carefully, and compare the reality and the dream, it is estimated that it can become a model for dream interpretation. If you have the opportunity, you should ask an expert, huh, huh.

Later, I checked the information, and sure enough, many conjectures were confirmed, and there were also many details that I failed to understand and see. I saw someone say that this is the closest movie to a dream, and I can't agree.

It really shows a dream, but it is also a movie that shows the contrast between dream and reality so cruelly. It is full of icy breath, and all the satisfaction is just illusory.

    This is the most thought-provoking proposition. I couldn't understand it at first, but after reading the name of a street, I lamented. Hollywood, the doomed name turned itself into the pseudonym Mulholland Drive and sobbed alone. Once again, it dreams that it is someone else, chasing, confused, you start to wander, and it screams itself. Turns and intersections became bizarre and cruel, and at the end, I suddenly remembered its other name: floating life, like a dream.

Mulholland Drive quotes

  • Cowboy: When you see the girl in the picture that was shown to you earlier today, you will say, "this is the girl". The rest of the cast can stay, that's up to you. But the choice for that lead girl is NOT up to you. Now... you will see me one more time, if you do good. You will see me... two more times, if you do bad. Good night.

  • Betty Elms: [Betty and Rita are in bed, about to have sex for the first time] Have you ever done this before?

    Rita: I don't know. Have you?

    Betty Elms: I want to with you.
