"I can't tell whether you are you, I am me, or I am you, and you are me too. Your appearance is like a wedding feast in my life, but you left so casually and decisively as never appeared. Everything is you, around you, the reality is you, the dream is also you, I can't escape, I can't escape you, and you bring me the greatest joy and the most extreme loneliness."
I believe most of you have at least heard of this movie. David Lynch's "Mulholland Drive" has long been famous. People who love it regard it as a bible, and naturally there are no people who call it a bad movie. few. Maybe the movie was awesome to you; maybe you read the review before watching the movie; maybe you watched half of it and it sucked.
What I'm going to say today is just my personal interpretation of this movie. In my opinion, it's actually a love letter. Everyone has dreamed of someone they love, when they're in love or after a breakup. It's actually that simple. A movie is a movie. In the face of the general public, don't take watching a movie as reading comprehension. You enter the story, and the story echoes you. Rely on any professional theory.
This is a sad love story. The small town girl came to Hollywood with the dream of being a star. She lived an ordinary life that could no longer be ordinary, but she had an extraordinary girlfriend. Such a radiant girlfriend naturally became her The only focus in mediocre life, so she couldn't accept her girlfriend leaving so lightly and become someone else's bride. She failed so emotionally and at work, her girlfriend's indifference was like a reddish stroke on her lack of achievement, so she was angry, trembling with anger, crying, angry to the point of irrational Buy murdered the person she loved the most and, I guess, killed herself mentally at the same time.
So she lived a life upside down day and night, and she had many dreams about her girlfriend with guilt. In her dreams, she seemed to be the powerful one, the one who was depended on, and everything went so well. But a dream is a dream after all. After waking up, you still have to face what you have done, face a life that is still a complete failure, and face your girlfriend and leave forever. Suddenly she understood that her failures could only be blamed on herself. She couldn't face the fact that she couldn't face what she had done, and ended her life in a half-awake state.
I don't really like spoilers, but I don't think the plot itself is important in this movie.
The story is an ordinary story, the beauty is the scenes and actors, and the superb editing and narration techniques of David Lynch, there is logic in the chaos. Everything is a cause and everything is an effect. There are many people who have stories, but very few people who can tell them. Whether you look at it in terms of Freud's theory of dreams, or just stand on the sidelines from an outsider's point of view, or you take it as your own story. No matter how much "Mulholland Drive" is in your heart, you can't help but admit that David Lynch is very smart.
"It's not the first time I've dreamed of you, I've had many such illogical daydreams before, I saw your long black hair, short blond hair, crimson hair between sleep and wake up. Lips, you bow your head, you cry, you are so flustered and helpless, relying on me like that, I don't want to wake up. I miss you so much, you are so beautiful. I love you, I hate you too. I still love you ."
Mulholland Drive is a love letter to the dead, weird as it may be, but full of affection.
I wish you all the best.
May those you love love you too.
