Great to see someone else has an appreciate for Mulholland Drive. I've never had the pleasure of viewing it with someone else who could appreciate it the same way that I do. It's the only movie I've ever taken notes on, and I was so excited to do so! Such a powerful film that holds a lot of mystery.
