Seven Nights of DAVID LYNCH: MULHOLLAND DRIVE (M) Presented in 35mm

Dive into the enigmatic masterpiece that cemented David Lynch as cinema's premier architect of dreams and nightmares. This 2001 neo-noir thriller weaves a hypnotic tale through the sun-drenched boulevards and shadow-filled corners of Hollywood, where nothing is quite what it seems.

Naomi Watts delivers a mesmerizing dual performance as Betty/Diane, an aspiring actress whose sunny optimism masks deeper, darker currents. When she encounters Rita (Laura Harring), a mysterious woman suffering from amnesia after a car accident on the titular winding road, their investigation into Rita's identity becomes a labyrinthine journey through Hollywood's underbelly of broken dreams and twisted desires.

Lynch crafts a puzzle box of a film that operates on pure cinematic logic - part love story, part murder mystery, part meditation on the cruel machinery of Hollywood dreams. The film's first two acts unfold like a classic noir before Lynch pulls the rug out from under audiences with a final hour that recontextualizes everything that came before. Angelo Badalamenti's haunting score perfectly complements Lynch's surreal imagery, from the eerie Club Silencio sequence to the unforgettable "behind Winkie's" scene that will haunt your dreams.

Winner of the Best Director prize at Cannes and consistently ranked among the greatest films of the 21st century, Mulholland Drive rewards multiple viewings as new layers of meaning emerge from Lynch's intricate web of symbols, dreams, and Hollywood mythology.

This is cinema as pure experience - beautiful, bewildering, and utterly unforgettable.
