How could anyone like this movie? As for myself and thousand of other movie goers, I don't really like seeing a movie where I am in total dismay and confusion from start to finish. Mulholland Drive makes no sense, presenting itself with scene after scene of new characters and settings which have no introduction whatsoever.
Mulholland Drive starts out with a young woman being held at gun point inside a limo, the limo crashes on a hill near L.A. The woman gets out and it is shown she has a headache, when she can't remember anything the audience finally understand she has amnesia. This scene is soon followed by a diner scene with Robert Forester which makes absolutely no sense where he is talking to his partner about every day things and suddenly says "I can see through it, there's a man behind the dumpster." So Forester and his partner go out, he has a flash of a monster once they get behind the dumpster, then they walk away. The next scene takes us to one of those executive rooms with the long tables, multiple seats, and dozens of ashtrays. A man in a chair who doesn't talk is being talked to by a movie producer of some sort, the scene ends and nothing is explained.
The movie goes on and on like this. I wouldn't recommend this for the average viewer or for movie buffs. Only hardcore, and believe me when I say hardcore, David Lynch fans might enjoy this. For the most part you'll have the sudden urge to turn your VCR/DVD player off or shoot yourself in the head, one or the other.
