Yes! Both Naomi Watts' "audition" and the diner/dumpster scene are sublimely terrifying, in their own separate ways.
I have let this film fall to the side, forgetting about it. My rewatch reminds me that I should never think of this as anything less than a masterpiece. One of the essential, bitter rejections of Hollywood and the borderline-sadism of its artifice. As a genre fan, it behooves me to remember the lessons of this film. Also, it functions as one of the greatest 2000s tragic romances.

Yesterday I watched this once more. Now I'm sure; Mulholland Dr is one of the best films I've ever seen. Thank you D. Lynch!
It's quite simple, Lynch's 2001 masterpiece is the best film since 1977 when Annie Hall came out

To me, MD is the filmic equivalent of a Chinese fingertrap. The more logic I attempt to apply to it, the tighter its grasp becomes on my mind. But what a wonderful and supremely strange grasp it is.
if i caught my wife in bed with billy ray cyrus, i would also paint all of her jewelry pink.
The most frightening film I've ever seen. I don't even like looking at the DVD on my shelf it's so scary.
When i saw it was gonna be on TV i had to watch it, no matter how many times i saw it before ... And still, at the end of the film i was all like: What the fuck have i just watched. Brilliant.
I stole my mate's VHS copy of MD when I was thirteen so I could secrete my joy juice. Not a bad film otherwise.
This film allows us to delve into the psychology of a character and get lost in the imagery of the mind struggle,internal dissonance versus the action in her life.The driving force of the film is the emotions you feel and every plot point's goal is to emote a feeling found in the characters,regardless of linear storytelling or logic.The editing is inspiring, as the transitions are flawless.Llorando in "Silencio"=wow.
É o tipo de filme que faz sentido na primeira hora (embora deixe muitas dúvidas por exclarecer). Na segunda hora, torna-se um bocado confuso mas fica-se com a sensação de que o mistério está prestes a ser desvendado. E na terceira hora, Mr. Lynch puxa-nos o tapete debaixo dos pés e confunde-nos até ao ponto de ficarmos sem saber o que aconteceu. Vou ler sobre o filme, para ver se o argumento tem algum fio condutor.
