Critics have said the film is \"outside logical explanation,\" that it lacks \"any semblance of rationality,\" that \"people who try to work out what is 'really' going on in it are wasting their time.\" Given \u003ci\u003eMulholland Drive\u003c\/i\u003e's unorthodox narrative-Is the story a dream? The visions of a dying mind? A depiction of alternate realities?-it's no wonder audiences struggle to make sense of it. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eDevious Dreams: Reimagining David Lynch's Mulholland Drive\u003c\/i\u003e, John Thorne argues that a simple story hides beneath the film's chaotic surface. Through a study of \u003ci\u003eMulholland Drive\u003c\/i\u003e's production documents, shooting script, and original configuration as a television pilot, and through analysis of David Lynch's approach to editing, sound design, scene arrangement, and camera movement, Thorne offers compelling evidence that the first part of the film is an exaggerated reflection of the latter-that a dream interpretation is the most coherent way to read \u003ci\u003eMulholland Drive\u003c\/i\u003e. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eSupplementing Thorne's analysis, \u003ci\u003eDevious Dreams\u003c\/i\u003e features in-depth interviews with \u003ci\u003eMulholland Drive\u003c\/i\u003e's lead performers: Naomi Watts, Justin Theroux, and Laura Elena Harring. Each actor shares vivid memories of making \u003ci\u003eMulholland Drive\u003c\/i\u003e (both as television pilot and film) and offers personal interpretations of the film. Originally published in \u003ci\u003eWrapped In Plastic\u003c\/i\u003e magazine in 2001, these interviews enhance our understanding of \u003ci\u003eMulholland Drive\u003c\/i\u003e and provide a rare glimpse into its unusual creation. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eMulholland Drive\u003c\/i\u003e is a film that warrants in-depth interrogation. Here, in these pages, it gets due consideration. Cogently argued and meticulously researched, \u003ci\u003eDevious Dreams\u003c\/i\u003e is an unprecedented look at this landmark film.\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 212\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.48 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e August 05, 2024\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52441856344371,"sku":"9780997108156","price":33.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/zEc-zXrfeJ9780997108156.webp?v=1758887644","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/products\/devious-dreams-reimagining-david-lynchs-mulholland-drive-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
