Homecoming Queen, founder and volunteer for wheels on meals, waitress, caregiver to a special needs teenager, English tutor--no wonder Laura was on cocaine.

Re-watching from the start for the first time in a few years, and I'm on episode 3 and struck by just how thin Laura was spread, even leaving aside the other, darker, secret stuff she was dealing with.


One of the joys on my first watch was slowly falling love with Laura, and realizing just how much pain she was in, and also how much joy she spread to everyone around her. On this re-watch, it's plain as day, right up front. It's all just said so clinically, in the process of Coop and Harry's police interviews with the various towns folks.


Gosh I love Laura Palmer.


Other stuff I should maybe be on the look out for this re-watch? It's essentially only my second full watch (though I've re-watched key episodes and moments over and over and over again).

Conversation With The Stars question

So I'm going tomorrow to the Napa event, and I was wondering if any of the cast meets anyone after the show besides for meet and greets? I really wanna tell Sheryl Lee how FWWM and her performance as Laura has effected me and I didn't have money for the meet and greet package :( For anyone that's gone, did you meet any of the cast after?

i just realized that the blue box in mulholland is a really good analogy for psychosis

Looking at other people's interpretations of lynch's work and thinking about it myself, for me blue symbolizes our dreams or in other words the concept of our imagination and our ideals and everything that entails, as opposed red which is the curtain of reality that gives us a backdrop to perform our ideas upon.

Considering my own experiences, whoever the protagonist of Mulholland Drive is becomes trapped in a blue box of her imagination after learning the truth that crushed the entire foundation she had built her life on. She becomes completely absorbed in some kind of incohesive grand narrative that is disconjunctive with her actual life but she desperately clings onto until the return of the old couple, the people who presumably got her to hollywood in the first place, finally confirms the truth she had forgotten and breaks her completely.
