Mulholland Drive - I've Told Every Little Star

[@felipeson]

this movie feels like a dream you had and barely can remember but at the same time the whole thing is on your mind. it’s the middle thing between a sweet dream and a nightmare. i don’t know if that makes sense but it’s how i feel.

[@MrAlsgaard]

at least, half of the movie is a dream...

[@judyhopps9380]

@@MrAlsgaard I always saw the first half as the blonde girl making an excuse or a reality to hide in as she tries to forget she was jealous of her friend being successful and marrying a director. So she hires an assassin to kill her friend, then suddenly regrets the decision, and reality crashes into her fantasy world.

[@simonboccanegra3811]

As much as I love the film as it exists, that scene with the locking of eyes makes me wonder how Lynch would have developed the story between Betty and Adam if this TV pilot had become a series. I suspect Adam would have fallen in love with Betty (both as a person and as an acting talent) and put his life in peril by defying the mob guys and giving Camilla the boot.

[@user-ro9md9wp3j]

There's so much potential in that moment. You can feel the desire Betty and Adam have for each other, as if fate has brought them together, and for a second you imagine how everything could be different. And then Betty turns away. Edit: I just noticed the way the violins sustain a single note during that moment of eye contact. Subtle but brilliant detail in the sound design.

[@user-ro9md9wp3j]

@@fakename5687 So? Just because something happens within a dream doesn't mean it isn't real, or doesn't have the potential to be real. As evidenced by the diner scene at the beginning. And don't forget that according to Lynch the entire film is a kind of dream. To reduce this movie down to "this stuff is a dream, and this stuff is real" is to destroy all the brilliant subtleties and ambiguities that Lynch uses to blur the line between the two.

[@78die78]

Could not have said it better myself. I bought this dvd after my first viewing & have repeatedly come back to it.

[@robertforster4275]

The film has a pretty concrete explanation. What you are seeing here is Diane's dream in which she has fantasized about herself coming to LA to become a star(which she has failed to do in reality). Camilla, the girl singing in the scene, is another female lover of Rita(who Diane recently found out is marrying Adam the director). So it's a small patch of jealousy that Camilla is performing a "part" that Diane is going to audition for, to which Adam the director has been forced by the "powerful executive strings of Hollywood" to "This is the girl" when Camilla is auditioning. Diane wants to believe that her failed acting quest has been because of the Hollywood system. Further, notice at the moment after he says "This is the girl", Diane suddenly feels anxious, meets eyes with Adam, and she suddenly has to go. This exact moment so perfectly captures the essence of dream logic and the way your subconscious experiences dreams of anxiety and confrontation. Adam's glance lingers on because even in your dreams you as the dreamer know they are still looking(because you want them to be know your experience) even when you aren't there to look back. P.S. The cowboy's "If you see me one more time.....two more times..." speech is both for Diane and the audience. It's a different connotation depending on the perspective. It's meant to have you fail on your first viewing("you did bad"). On understanding it, you realize that Diane "did good"(in a sense).

50s and 60s music is not creepy and was not creepy in its day. It may seem creepy to you now because so many psychological thrillers and horror movies include a song from that era during an especially suspenseful scene in the movie, which conditions you to feel creeped out.

[@vincentknight27]

@@corydefenders5103 It was creepy for David Lynch. The neat and innocent 50s and 60s small town America is what he grew up in, but by coming of age he realized that it was all a phony facade. that's why his movies are how they are, and that's why he uses music like this for example to a terrifying extent.

Alcune cose vengono percepite istintivamente, altre ti vengono in mente come dei flashback. In questo Lynch è stato un maestro impareggiabile. Tanti elementi e sottotrame si riescono a capire gradualmente. Il fatto di aver dovuto comprimere una serie (che mai ha visto la luce) in un solo film, ha per forza di cose, purtroppo, reso ancora più complessa l'opera. Ma per chi lo guarda senza pregiudizi e con apertura svela tutta la sua potenza evocativa.

[@steeldriver1776]

POV: You're addicted to the song and singer but don't know why; you're playing it over and over. You feel drawn to it but don't know why. I did the same thing but eventually figured it out. The tune is super upbeat yet calm and melodic. It feels like the beach, Christmas and a time long forgotten all rolled into one. It's nostalgia for everyone no matter when you were born. A time of long summers and flavored frozen popsicles. Her dance and body language is seductively playful but reserved just enough to drive men mad. It takes you back to young love, first love. A simpler era where fast cars and cute girls filled the heart. To the old days, even from those who never knew you, cheers.

Just about every actor that gets a chance to be in a David Lynch film puts in some of their best performance. already an admirer of Lynch's work i was quite excited to see that he cast not one but three Australian actors in 2001's "Mulholland Drive", Naomi Watts, (who'd become a regular collaborator and is a joy to watch in "Twin Peaks; The Return"), but also Melissa George seen in this scene , and Marcus Graham, who we meet as the very nervous assistant (?) trying to serve a good cup of coffee to Angelo Badalamenti, during the scene where Justin Theroux argues over who's going to be the star of "his" film. Much to the annoyance of friends and anyone within hearing distance i cant, and will not, stop ever raving about D. Lynch's work. His films are the gift that keeps on giving, because there's always more to be discovered and pondered over with each viewing.

[@robertbusek30]

He seems to work with his actors very well. Some of the behind the scenes stuff from Twin Peaks The Return really shows his style to great effect.

He makes the audience think for themselves by just providing so much to stir their emotions and get on their raw nerves. Then they not only question the work by their reactions to it also.

[@kurtkerby]

No idea Melissa George was Australian. Fan of hers from Alias.

[@jackfriend4u]

@@kurtkerby I didn't know Melissa George was an Australian either...and i'm an Aussie! So many of our home-grown actors that get to go to the US and have famous roles , are then hardly ever heard using their own accents (except in interviews- but i'm all about the films/tv roles they play, not their personal lives etc) . I also never watch locally made soap operas like "Home and Away "and "Neighbours" so i don't see them in the formative years of their careers. Se was terrific in Alias and i dont think i even knew she was Australian then! (a bit like Margot Robbie and Isla Fisher!). M. George can also be seen in both the Australian and US versions of a series called "The Slap", and she has a small role in the amazing "Dark City", which although filled with cool international actors (like William Hurt, Rufus Sewell, Kiefer Sutherland, Jennifer Connelly, and Richard O'Brien) was made here (written and directed by the awesome Alex Proyas), but cos all the accents are kind of "trans-Atlantese" American and British, you could be forgiven thinking it was all made in the US.

[@notme.3917]

I have a theory: David Lynch is from another planet. This film is a masterpiece of art. You have to be so intelligent to make this possible. No words to describe this movie

[@evanpeltier]

Agreed. If you love David Lynch, I recommend you to watch Noah Hawley's tv series "Legion". It's a Marvel adaptation, but it's very unique and mind-bending. It's about a young man with schizophrenia, but he can bend reality at his will. The cinematography and narrative style is similar to Fincher and Kubrick's movies, like "Fight Club" "The Shining" and "A Clockwork Orange".

@@youreverypicture3877 It's literally nothing like the Marvel films. It's a unique show, with amazing cinematography and the writing is excellent. Noah Hawley created, wrote and directed it, and he also made the show Fargo. You've seen the Fargo series, right?

@@youreverypicture3877 Dude trust me, it's completely different to anything Marvel has ever done. Just watch the first episode, you'll see what I mean. It's like if David Lynch and Stanley Kubrick had a baby. Dan Stevens plays the main character.

[@strangemarkings]

So surreal seeing an ad for H&M playing right before this video using the exact same song

[@ronniebishop2496]

I keep watching this one clip. It’s the song I’m sure, good songs never get old. Do they?

[@XxPepper17xX]

One of my favorite little absurd things in this clip is Hank handing the assistant nothing but an empty paper plate, which he proceeds to walk away with. It's the little details in Lynch stuff that give away what's a dream and what isn't.

[@OasisJones]

But when Lynch shot this it was NOT intended to be any kind of dream. People know full well it’s a pilot and then continue to go on about how intricate the “dream” is.

[@Heheeps]

People will legit credit anything to Lynch at this point. "Camilla's lipstick is actually a reference to the pink Camellia flower!! bravo Lynch!!!"

[@OasisJones]

@@Heheeps Here’s the thing, I think if the dream narrative idea was planned from the start and intricately assembled it could absolutely work and be dramatically effective but that’s not the case with Lynch making this into feature.

[@keithwellerlounge74]

@@OasisJonesBut it did work? Maybe that’s the beauty of it, things don’t have to necessarily add up because it’s supposed to be like a dream. I don’t think the empty paper plate is a great example (totally reasonable to assume someone had been eating from it in a previous scene), but so many of the scenes are so clever in how they don’t make sense from a narrative point of view, but absolutely make sense from the lense of it being a dream with subtle references to things that happened in reality.

[@OasisJones]

@@keithwellerlounge74 But they don’t amount to anything bigger than the sum of their parts because Lynch never shaped the movie as any dream narrative, that was a retcon after the pilot footage was done. The movie becomes a boringly literal piece of Freudian dream analysts with this framework because it’s simply people projecting meaning where none connects to a larger scope of summation.

[@neodonkey]

Love how Adam keeps that creepy mob guy waiting. "This is the girl."

[@ShFred]

Always felt bad for Kesher in this movie. He feels like the only remotely realistic and sane character in this fever dream. It's like one of those characters in your dreams who is not you, but you get to go under their skin for the duration of the dream, feeling what they feel, seeing what they see.

Ever since one of my college movie professors showed my class this film, I couldn’t stop humming or singing along to this particular song. It’s nostalgia for my parents, since living throughout the 60s, and having that same rhythm and sounds built into it. Can’t get enough of this mysterious magic from the terrific David Lynch.

This tune stuck in my head for years since I heard it in a restaurant but could not identify. All I remembered was the dum da dum part. Then I discovered google hum and my long long search was over.

[@The22on]

I can't stop watching this scene! Every nuance, expression, camera angle, set, clothes... it's perfect. And let's count how many actors contribute to making the tension in this scene work: Adam, His Assistant, the Assistant's assistant, Camilla Rhodes, the talent agent, the talent agent's assistant, Namoi Watts, the mob boss, the mob boss's assiatant. Every one of them gets a camera shot. That's NINE people! And they picked the perfect song for this movie. It's happy and upbeat - exactly the opposite of what Adam is feeling. I love when he says "This is the girl". And the mob guys look at him like he escaped a terrible fate. The boss says, "Excellent choice, Adam:." Wow. By the way, using strongarm tactics to get roles for actors is nothing new. That scene in The Godfather was EXACTLY like this scene. The singer wanted a movie part - the director said no - they killed the director's horse to show they were serious - the director said yes. Some people say this was what heppened with Frank Sinatra getting the juicy part in-the movie. From Here To Eternity. In The Godfather, the director even tells the lawyer that, "I won't hire him. If I did, he'll probably win an oscar." Well, Sinatra WAS hired and he DID win the Best Actor oscar! That's how business is sometimes done in the real world.

Havenot seen the movie (but now will); am old enough to dimly rember when this hit the airwaves. Despite knowing she is lipsyncing the original, just would like to say the actress's performance & whoever choreographed it must be genius. Seldom seen anything so appealing & alluring whilst remaining true to the era it was set in. Brings a tear to me memory, wish there was video of just her singing the full song.

Amazing film. Watched it for the first time yesterday.

@@christopherpaul7588 Season Three was a mixed bag for me. Some of it was great, especially the series finale which was one of the best episodes of television ever recorded. Some episodes I didn't like at all. Some I actually disliked. Episode 8 was good but highly overrated. I didn't care at all for what I saw at the time as the Retcon of Laura as a Great Goddess figure and BOB as a major demonic figure of immense power and incalculable evil. I concede that may have been Lynch's intentions from the very beginning but I found it very disappointing.

[@jimstanga6390]

I went to a house party in college where theater and music majors had a party game they played. They had 2 large theatrical top hats inverted on a table. One had slips of paper with the names of celebrities and performers and the other had popular songs. Then everyone sat in a big circle and they sort of played ‘spin the bottle’. When you got singled out, you had to pick a slip of paper from each hat. Then you had to perform that song like that person. Everyone got 3 escape chips where you could pass it off to someone if you thought you couldn’t pull it off. If you took the challenge you had to perform. Some were pretty stupid. Others were hilarious (think of Robin Williams doing Bruce Springsteen’s ‘Fire’ like Elmer Fudd). But every now and then, somebody performed something that blew your socks off. My roomie got this song and picked the name Buddy Holly. He asked for a minute to go outside to learn the chords on his guitar. About 15 minutes later, he came in and did a Rock-a-billy version of this song like Buddy Holly, and I swear it was electrifying. Everyone was blown away by his performance, and you felt you were listening to something special. I couldn’t help wondering that if Buddy had lived, maybe one day he would have done a cover of this song and taken to #1 on the charts.....
