'No Hay Banda, and yet We hear a Band': David Lynch's reversal of coherence in Mulholland Drive

Article Abstract:

The study presented relates David Lynch's aesthetics to poststructural theory and then applies these correlated aesthetics in the reading of the character of Rita and of the Club Silencio scene and setting. The film 'Mulholland Drive' is reviewed in which Lynch successfully reversed coherences, skillfully constructing a mesmerizing puzzle propelling the masses through a mysterious labyrinth of sensual experiences.
