One of director David Lynch's best and most mesmerizing films. The narrative structure is so challenging that you could loop the film and start watching at any point.A woman, known only as Rita, comes to her senses with no memory in a crashed car on Mulholland Drive, in Hollywood. Two (apparently evil) men lie dead in the wreckage. She stumbles to a nearby apartment complex…
Meanwhile, at a restaurant, two men named Herb and Dan converse. Dan reveals he had a nightmarish dream about the particular restaurant they're in. When the dream begins to come true, the two high-tail it out of there. They go to an alley where Dan dies for no apparent reason.
Later, an aspiring actress named Betty (Naomi Watts) arrives in Los Angeles and takes a cab to the apartment complex her Aunt Ruth lives in. There, she finds Rita in the shower. Rita eventually tells Betty about her amnesia and the two try to figure out who she is while commencing a torrid affair. More weird elements to the interlocking plot arise…
Naomi Watts deserved the best actress Oscar in 2001. She is astounding as the white-bread middle-American insanely perky Nancy Drew-esque heroine.
