Every day, find the program of films and series to see on TV. This evening: a cult work by David Lynch, a tribute to Sydney Poitier and a comedy with Franck Dubosc.
THE FILM OF THE DAY
In the vein of the cult series Twin Peaks, David Lynch is directing a pilot worn by Laura Harring and Naomi Watts. Rejected by ABC, the project finally becomes the filmmaker’s most emblematic feature film – and probably one of his best.
It is with his very particular style that Lynch recounts his experience as a creator while evoking the career of actress Jennifer Syme, to whom the film is dedicated. Between the fantastic and the thriller, the hypnotic Mulholland Drive constantly blurs the boundaries between Hollywood dream, reality and nightmare.
If the realization is rewarded with the César for the Best foreign film and the Price of the direction at the Cannes festival, the intrigue open to multiple interpretations continues to question the spectators since its exit. Mulholland Drive is in fact in the ranking of the most confusing films in the history of cinema on the OnBuy site with 18,990 monthly searches on the Internet.
