Mullohand Drive
What the heck was that.
Perfect review and exactly my response to it.
Like…I guess I appreciated the craftsmanship but when the movie derails into a random series of nonsensical scenes at the end, I lose investment.
The end of 2001 is crazy and mind boggling, but with a few viewings and close attention, you can make enough sense of the symbolism and meaning of the movie. I just felt disoriented after Mullohand Drive.
This was my first David Lynch movie and I hope to god that the rest are a little easier to follow.
Why not watch it again then? And some of them are (some aren’t).
I could try but it’ll have to wait. I was mentally shaked up quite a bit by the end. It was oddly scarier than almost any horror movie right at the end. When the old folk were chasing here while manically laughing, I was thoroughly disturbed.
That’s a good sign, would be bad if you had no reaction at all. It’s a pretty great movie.
Yeah, I obviously am not too hot on the movie after a first viewing, but I can’t deny that it deeply affected me and I will look up some interpretations and watch it again sometime.
If you’re interested in another similarly creepy as hell movie, Blue Velvet is a lot more straightforward, narratively speaking.
