...MULHOLLAND DR. David Lynch made the first 90 min. of this sexy thriller as a TV movie. When it didn't sell, Lynch added a coda that sends his characters into the weirdest Wonderland, as if Twin Peaks were to morph into Blue Velvet. It's not all intelligible, but it's always fabulous.

Archival footage of outrageous singer-pianist Frances Faye will dissolve into a filmed sequence of desert explorer Sir Wilfred Thesinger, which will morph into a series of still shots from small-town parade, which will change into a picture of a young model wearing a turban and silk shawls. Characters and events tumble by, with nary a clear transition or connection to help us understand where they fall. We cannot make sense...
