Mulholland Drive is a mind-altering journey to the dark heart of the American dream, where sinister forces lurk beneath every surface. Naive inginue Betty Elms (Naomi Watts) has come to Hollywood to seek fame and fortune – but she finds something much more disturbing waiting in her apartment – a mysterious woman whose only memory is that someone is trying to kill her. What begins as a simple premise unfolds into a shattering hallucinogenic vision of what it takes to make it in Hollywood. No-one comes out with their soul intact.
Critic Reviews
“It is an explosively sexy love story, rocket-fuelled with vanity and
cruelty.”
– Guardian
“Peppered with moments of pure, neck-prickling sensation, but the
emotional centre remains elusive.”
– Time Out
“When directors get you to ponder this much and leave a lasting
impression after you've seen a movie of theirs, they have to be doing something
right.”
