Mullholland Drive (first response)

I’d give this film a 9/10.

I enjoyed the freedom it had to express itself in weird an interesting ways. The last quarter had me questioning many more things than it answered, but at the same time I felt like I could make slight links between different narrative strands and characters. The cyclical narrative especially really emphasised the different perspective needed to begin to comprehend the film.

memorable moment for me was the assignation of the screenwriter, then the assistant, then the janitor, and I think it added a comedic relief, and the juxtaposition of murder and comedy helped me to understand the unnatural feel of this scene, and the film as a whole.
