I just whatched a film called Moholland Drive again, i had previously seen it a few times at my theatre awhile back but the movie is still confusing. Maybe you guys could shed some light on this.

p.s I can't wait until the dancer upstairs comes out at my theatre!!! [thumbsup]

Living in Australia, i can call Mulholland Drive a foreign film [Smile]
I've always considered David Lynch's films to be very open to interpretation, in parts there is definite meaning, but as a whole???
I always find it's just best to open your ears, eyes and mind and just enjoy the ride.

It can be safe to call Mulholland Drive a foreign title -- financed by French-based StudioCanal, released in the US by co-owned Universal.

You might also consider The Matrix Reloaded a foreign film as it's co-financed by an Australian studio.

Nathan: Ian's arthouse in your town just picked up The Dancer Upstairs.

So do you also go to foreign movie theatres? Loews Cineplex is majority financed / owned by Onex, a Canadian company.
