"Mulholland Drive" is beautifully and intricately structured: Those who delight in disassembling Lynchs puzzles will have a great time flipping the plot around, tracing its breadcrumb clues back from the end to the beginning. But it also works out perfectly if youre interested only in the interplay between its hypnotically beguiling characters (or even if youre interested only in seeing them go to bed with one another). At the very least, the luxe air of menace that hangs around "Mulholland Drive" like a vapor is evidence of Lynch at his best. If you could put the essence of 3 a.m. in a perfume bottle, it would smell like "Mulholland Drive" looks.
