David Lynch's MULHOLLAND DRIVE (2001)– Live Performance by Rebekah Del Rio! | Philosophical Research Society
Arts
Film
A love story in the city of dreams . . .
Perhaps no other LA film is so steeped in the mythos and mystery of our complex city and its spectres of burning hopes and broken dreams as
David Lynch
's
MULHOLLAND DRIVE
(2001). As part of
YesterdayLA,
the Philosophical Research Society’s monthlong exploration of Los Angeles history, 7th House Screenings is proud to present the late master's
enigmatic dream logic masterpiece,
one of the most monumental works of 21st Century cinema and one of the greatest Los Angeles films ever made.
This special screening will be
accompanied by an appearance and performance by the film's Club Silencio "Llorando" chanteuse, Rebekah Del Rio
!
Blonde Betty Elms (Naomi Watts) has only just arrived in Hollywood to become a movie star when she meets an enigmatic brunette with amnesia (Laura Harring). Meanwhile, as the two set off to solve the second woman’s identity, filmmaker Adam Kesher (Justin Theroux) runs into ominous trouble while casting his latest project. Of its plot, The New York Times's A.O. Scott wrote, "Its tangled story will be experienced by some as an offense against narrative order, but the film is an intoxicating liberation from sense, with moments of feeling all the more powerful for seeming to emerge from the murky night world of the unconscious."
Lynch’s seductive and scary vision of Los Angeles’s dream factory is one of the true masterpieces of the new millennium, a tale of love, jealousy, and revenge like no other. Do not miss your chance to see this shadowy, "poisonous valentine to Hollywood" in one of the city's oldest centers for esoteric mysteries – replete with an unforgettable performance by
Rebekah Del Rio
!
Dir. David Lynch, 2001, 146 mins, United States, English, Rated R, Digital.

ABOUT
YesterdayLA
This June, the Philosophical Research Society celebrates our beloved city’s rich and diverse past with
YesterdayLA
, a month-long exploration of unique stories and works of art that have become part of the fabric of Los Angeles history. The landscape of our city is changing faster than ever before. By examining the LA of yesterday, we invite Angelenos to gather together to not only look back but forward to the possibilities of our great city’s tomorrow.
Throughout its 90+ year history The Philosophical Research Society has stood as a sanctuary for those seeking truth and enlightenment, with its doors open to Angelenos who have created great works of art and innovation, political movements, and spiritual evolutions across the eras. YesterdayLA will explore the fascinating stories of our city’s past with the continued spirit of curiosity that has stood as the pillar of PRS’s mission.
