Two key moments Mulholland DriveWriter/Director David Lynch (David Lynch)In 2001, the super reality puzzle box showed the role of the key. Expert blue key. One key is gorgeous, which seems to be related to another world, and the other is just standard house keys. What do they open? The only way to reach the answer depends on the profound clues left by the director. The most important thing is the feeling and emotion they think of. Because in David Lynch’s movies, even if something seems to be unable to penetrate, this overwhelming feeling is that through the end of Credits, something has been cleaned on the audience. People may not understand why this feeling immediately shows, but this is the beginning of the real detective work.
Starting from a terrible accident on the hazardous curve of Mulholland Drive in Los Angeles, this movie does not waste time to build a terrible mood. Lonely survivor Rita (Rita) plays Laura HarringObviously in the troubles deep, this fact is confirmed by looking for a short scene of a woman’s shadow figure. Once the emotion of Nubile actress Betty has changed (Naomi watts) Enter the movie and enter Omnesiac Rita with a passion like Nancy to solve the mystery of her identity. After all, Lita has one of the blue keys and a dangerous money.
Next is a dreamy journey Robert Altman (Robert Altman)-The illustrations for Hollywood machines and its shiny veneer -of -face corruption style, and two women adventure entered an unknown world to obtain the answer that might destroy them. At the same time, film director Adam Kesher (Justin Therma), Fight with senior executives required to be a specific actress, becoming the protagonist of his new movie. Why? Like Betty and Rita, Adam lives in his own puzzle box. We encountered other Linqi movies in this world, weird characters, extreme violence, encountering troublesome women, and peaceful illusion with “true”. The original dream turned to a nightmare.
Linqi’s first movie Rubber head (1977) And Noy in 1997 Lost highway Still the most challenging movie of film producers. They have nightmare -like logic, welcome to explain, and at the same time expel the audience with ridiculous nihilism. Mulholland Drive However, it seems to be structured in a way to break and open. It deceives you believe that it will seek natural or even supernatural explanations, but just show you that the real mystery lies in unconsciousness.
The film provides the first clue in its slogan “Love Story of Dream City”. Lynch explores love in a dark and desperate place Twin peaks and Inner wild (All 1990), but here, film producers have more in -depth personality and desire. Naomi Watts’s Betty is Lynch’s most tragic and disturbing role. A woman’s dream has become the source of terror and violence. Similar to Twin peaksBetty Laura Palmer is a complicated and layered character, and its motivation and desires have led to the destruction path. However, Lynch always provides sympathy and love for her dilemma. Once we realize that we are watching a love story, the door starts to unlock, but what did the next key open?
When Betty was told that the “mission” would find the blue key, she asked “What is open?” The man sitting opposite her silently looked at her and laughed. This kind of communication occurs in a man’s same restaurant (Patrick Fischler), After repeated nightmares, a terrible character lived behind the restaurant, facing his fear, found that it was waiting for him. These scenes and terrible “bums” (Bonnie Aarons) It does not seem to be logically connected in the order of time. In Mulholland DriveEverything is more deeply excavated in Betty’s unconsciousness. We see that the tramp appears in more scenes, the deeper we go. Once we stare at the abyss, we will have the right back of the ass. Once again, Lynch associated the surreal journey with the thought of his miserable heroine.
Mulholland DriveTherefore, it is both a surreal new mission and a profound research on the lost soul destroyed by the dream factory. How people achieve this revelation lies in Lin Qi’s surreal and symbolic prosperity. A common misunderstanding is that Lynch is aimlessly blunt movie, which should not be understood by these movies. However, people quickly discovered that the absurdity and strangeness displayed on display were not just pretending, but a symbolic language, which provided clues for the world where we lived. This does not mean a literal explanation of these symbols. Lin Qi asked us what we believe in our image.
In the DVD version in 2002 Mulholland DriveLynch does not like his movies to be divided into physical distribution chapters, including a plug, not a series of clues to unlock the mystery of the movie. One of them said, “Who gave the key, why?”, And the other asked, “What did the feeling of realizing and gathering at the Silencio club.” For my own young film enthusiasts, this insertion is both lost and frustrating. What kind of clue is the “feeling” of an important moment? However, it provides the most critical lesson for enjoying Mulholland Drive Lin Qi’s work: The key is that there is no key. Only you, how can the movie feel. A mysterious character in the movie is “all fantasy.” Yes, a beautiful and disturbing person.
