I'm on the side of it being a pretentious load of toot. I got to a certain point in the film where I didn't have a clue what was going on and I didn't care any more. I'm all for non-linear narratives, unreliable narrators or experimental storytelling, but this hit my limits.Thoughts?
we’ve just switched to this at my college (I teach A Level film) for the ‘experimental film’ option. It’s a good one to study for those reasons but it’s not my fave

Absolutely completely and 100% agree.
It is absolute pretentious garbage. I'd say David Lynch doesn't even know what any of it means.
I think it's a good gauge of a person. If they say Mulholland Drive is a masterpiece, you know right off to avoid the c#nt
The Breakfast Club
A banger of an 80's movie, love it.
I'm convinced it becomes funnier the older I get.

I agree! I wonder what I’ll learn/uncover when I start teaching it
Students seem to love the strangeness and randomness though. Not watching it again until I have to!!---
Exactly! And I do like Lynch’s other work but this just seems daft in comparison. My husband likes the sex in it
So I’m sure the students will too. Ugh.Oh there is no doubt the sex scenes between the two female leads are the best thing in the filmMy husband likes the sex in it
NYAD on Netflix. Really good.
Pretty Woman - Never seen this before, everything just looked so corny.
The most sanitised sex work on film, I think. I do love that one, a modern fairytale!
The Baker with Ron Pearlman.
Don't Worry Darling
Good Burger 2
Been to see Saltburn tonight- loved it
Love Actually
Traffic.
One that slipped under the radar for me all these years although I remember when it was released and all the awards fanfare. It's okay. Forgettable. No idea why it was so lauded when it came out. dgaf about any of the characters and CZJ was so bad in it. Is this where she met "Migh-kelle"?

Beau is Afraid 🫣
Same. I didn't like Hereditary, I loved Midsommer.... this was just BAD.
I've decided everything after he takes his new medication is one long hallucination nightmare and not actually real. It's the only way I can deal with that mess.
A Haunting In Venice.
I enjoyed it but it wasn't as good as the other two films. Poirot seems to be getting more miserable as films go on. He's no longer the quirky character he started off as. (I've never read the books so don't know if that's intentional)

Netflix, Leave the World Behind
Bit of a slow burner, but still kept my attention for the first hour, mainly due to the extra dramatic music! But it sort of fizzled out with nothing really happening, the end reveal was just meh 
2hrs20mins wasted
