TICKETS: Included with General Admission
A love story in the city of dreams . . . Blonde Betty Elms (Naomi Watts) has only just arrived in Hollywood to become a movie star when she meets an enigmatic brunette with amnesia (Laura Harring). Meanwhile, as the two set off to solve the second woman’s identity, filmmaker Adam Kesher (Justin Theroux) runs into ominous trouble while casting his latest project. David Lynch’s seductive and scary vision of Los Angeles’s dream factory is one of the true masterpieces of the new millennium, a tale of love, jealousy, and revenge like no other.
Michael Wilmington of the Chicago Tribune writes "In David Lynch's masterfully bizarre Mulholland Drive, we're plunged into a Hollywood nightmare, a mad miasma of recycled noir archetypes and fractured dream logic. This is Lynch at his most characteristic -- weird, macabre, superbly unsettling.”
Estimated runtime: 135 min. Rated R.
