Rewatched Mulholland Drive today. (David Lynch, 2001)

Hadn't seen it in 15+ years and it felt fresh.

A blue key unlocking a memory that is seemingly gone. It evokes the feeling of being locked out of your apartment, with only a thin door separating you from normality. An insignificant barrier, yet sufficient to keep you out. Our memories are our fibrous, neural connection to that which is.

One of the more coherent Lynch films 😅 and one of my favs.

Heh. 😄 Yes, it's a memorable movie. It feels like you are watching two different films at the same time and they start to overlap into a stream of impressions where the time dimension is glitching and looping.

1980'ies reference:

It feels like your memory is a VHS tape that expands out from the video casette in chaotic whirls of misfiring synapses.

Great movie!🔥

I love the movie but I find it intense to sit through. Certain scenes I find very unsettling.
