So, uuuuh, why the FUCK was Michael Gira in Mulholland Drive??

FLEX YOUR MUSCLEEES

>>79691305
For the same reason Hannah Montana's dad was.

The cowboy wears a white hat, so he signifies the forces of good. One theme of Mulholland Drive is that the Hollywood film industry has an evil undercurrent which runs through it. If the cowboy is truly good, he cannot be part of that industry. Hence, Lynch cast Gira, an outsider, to fill that role, further underscoring this premise.

He is a narrator

FUCK

I STEAL YOUR OXYGEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEN

>>79691305
The real reason? Or the meme answer?
The real reason is because it was supposed to be a tv show pilot and his character would've returned in subsequent episodes
When it was decided to be a film, the second half was filmed with almost no relation to the first half 2 years later
The meme answer is this >>79692086

that's not michael cera. his voice is different

Lynch films besides Inland Empire, the first half of FWWM and maybe Lost Highway are easy as hell to understand / interpret, I have no clue why people like >>79692086 over analyze the shit out of them.

But Adam never sees him again.

>>79692086
Am I being fucking rused? The cowboy worked directly for the film execs taking creative control away from Adam and was un-subtly threatening him.

>>79693126
I don't know if you're trolling, but it's not about Adam seeing him again. We the Audience see the cowboy again after the dream ends... or the dream begins.

>>79691305
This movie is absolute shit and tries to hard to make hipsters feel smart. Fuck anyone who says they enjoy this movie.

>>79691305
Can someone tell me what emotion we are supposed to feel when the guy goes behind the restaurant and sees that "monster"? I remember my heart racing leading up to that part and then almost burst out laughing. Was this the right reaction?

>>79694497
the dream interpretation is a stupid, meme interpretation
but the film is still a masterpiece

it's similar to fight club: its fanbase makes the film seem worse than it actually is

>>79694497
You seem noticeably upset.

>>79692086
>>79691305
You're all wrong. He's a goddamn dream / drug hallucination.

>the dream interpretation is a stupid, meme interpretation
Let's hear your theory then.

>>79694497
well here's a man who wants to get right down to it!

>>79694744
It's a surrealist take, but the first half is clearly just the successor to the second half to highlight the similarity between Diane and Betty - ie. how they were the same stereotype at different points in their career

The dream interpretation makes no sense because there's too much info and too many details that she couldn't have known to dream. Plus it's a complete cop-out

>>79694369
>We the Audience see the cowboy again after the dream ends... or the dream begins.
So, Adam did good?

>>79694926
The dream explanation makes perfect sense to me. What do you take it to mean?

>DUDE DREAMS LMAO

>>79695504
>What do you take it to mean?
That the first half of the film was a dream by Betty imagining herself as a young star new to hollywood, trying to investigate her actual death

>>79695620
That makes way less sense.

Inland Empire is better

You burst out laughing due to shock and hysteria. You got lynched m8.

>>79695659
that's what i'm saying, the dream theory makes no sense

I've only watched Eraser Head and MD.
What do I watch now from Lynch?
I've heard Inland Empire is hard to grasp so I should leave it last.

Never seen Twin Peaks either.

>>79697494
Start with Twin Peaks. It's the most accessible lynch shit there is.

>>79697494
Elephant Man is super accessible. Normies like that movie.

>>79697494
The Straight Story
It's his best

i want to start listening to swans give me 5-10 songs to start with

>>79691305
We're doing this one again op? k.

>>79698093
This is the only Lynch I haven't seen. I love lynch, but this one just doesn't grab me, and the trailer was pretty awful. Is it worth watching?

>>79698460
>Is it worth watching?
Yes; it's incredible

>>79695620
Nobody interprets it that way. The first half is a fantasy of Betty in the second half, used up, picturing herself as this impossibly virtuous, perky character who could only have failed in her career some evil conspiracy, rather than just bad luck.
