Mulholland Drive: trippy

Story Nerd

About this episode

Valerie asked me, “How are you going to explain this?” 

Trippy. 

It’s David Lynch and it’s trippy. 

It’s also an antiplot story with characters who have two identities. Where is the speech in praise of the villain and what arc does the story and protagonist have? Well…it’s a mix of pessimistic, dreamy, constant, whoa, what is going on, and none. 

Pick and choose. Close your eyes and we’ll see you in the void. -M
