Comment
This movie exhibits elements of surrealism and mixes dreams and reality. The time is not lineal and has several instances of temporal disruption.
Mulholland Drive is really amazing and it’s necessary that you keep your attention in each one of the details in order to understand it. However, after watching the movie, you will have a lot of doubt.
