there are/were way too many actresses trying to make it big in hollywood, some people don't even get any recognition at all. but of course naomi watts is a great actress.
I just wish that she worked more often, but besides that Netflix show, she picks her parts well & always delivers so I'm eagerly awaiting the release of her next project
After watching this movie, i completely got what Martin Scorsese meant about having more films driven by individual vision rather than being manufactured product. This movie is so bizarre yet a dream-like experience that you enjoy watching, thinking about it, without having concrete answers for anything and leaving it for you to answer it for yourself. It makes me understand Scorsese's point about having more directors like David Lynch.
@Lance Lanny everything Tarantino ever made was recycled from other people, same goes for most of the filmmakers you listed. They were all inspired by other people. Cinema is just as alive as it’s ever been, people just can’t stand new things. Once you get old you get to absorbed with the past to the point that you can’t recognize what is great now.
@Lance Lanny sure Joker and films like it are recycled, but there are always recycled films. There always have been, always will be. To try and simplify it in that way is to ignore all the great, original films that are released all the time. Parasite, Inception, Get Out, The Grand Budapest Hotel, Her, and Arrival are just some of the extremely popular original films from the past decade. There are hundreds of others.
David Lynch seems so sensitive and cautious with actors, you always see it in these making-of videos. Explains why they come back to work with him again and again.
He's a real "actor's director". Not cautious, but sensitive to what he needs to give them for them to a:know what he needs in the scene, and b: get into the headspace required. All actors are different in that respect, so that sensitivity to the individual with the warmth and complete trust he communicates brings out stellar performances. And makes the working experience really special.
Everyone who used to work with David tells that he's one off the most sensitive and kind persons they have ever met and that he creates the very special and comfortable atmosphere on the set
Even the behind the scenes felt intense and sinister. All those little inaudible sidebars with Lynch. Sheesh! And Naomi was clearly in character even when the camera wasn't rolling. A rare look into how a great piece of art is made.
Many artists live in their own internal world, and dialogue with themselves. The difference with Lynch is…he is clearly unafraid of expressing his unconventional ideas AND does so boldly with laser focus. No “shoe gazing” for him. His force of Will to give birth to his ideas is astounding.
Same thing happened to me. It threw off the whole second half of the film. In my eyes the actors looked and acted completely different, even Naomi’s teeth changed between the two characters. I ended up having such a bad interpretation of what happens in the film.
Naomi Watts is such an incredible actress. The vulnerability that she is able to bring to the surface as Diane/Betty in this film is one of the greatest performances of all-time.
I'll never forget the first time i watched this film, i was in awe. The way lynch can capture surreal and unconscious feelings with what are seemingly random and bizarre events is truly magical. When he's good, like in this and Twin Peaks, he's truly sui generis. The man is a genius. We forgive Dune. :)
This movie is a masterpiece of Hollywood broken dreams, sex, jealousy and psychological war with ones self and this cast, director and crew made it a standard to be measured.
I do not think we will ever get a movie like this ever again. At least from Hollywood. This is pure, unadulterated art for art's sake. No American production will ever dare anything like this
agree. It’s a pity it doesn’t show how the famous coffee scene was filmed, where the non-professional actor Badalamenti played very convincingly, and this is not his merit, but mainly the director’s. this is art
I really really love how genuinely in tune with his actors he is... And that he was worried about her coming down the hill in those heels. David, you're so sweet!!!
Kubrick is one of my favorite directors, but I can't deny he can be toxic. The Shining is an awesome movie but I also can't deny how toxic it is behind the scenes. To be honest, I've always find The Shining to be a little overrated as it's not the 10/10 everyone say it is. I'd still say it's a top 10 horror and perhaps one of the scariest but the behind the scenes put me in bad taste. MD, on the other hand, is perfect from beginning to end.
This is clear proof that award organizations don't always recognize the best. The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (the Oscars) didn't even nominate Naomi Watts for Best Actress for her performance in Mulholland Dr.
Because David knew how they operated; they made his professional life miserable for years This was a thinly veiled indictment of the Hollywood Star Machine, and they weren't about to acknowledge him for that...
and incredibly, incredibly collaborative. even with a production as director-driven as a Lynch film, it really can't be said how much of a group effort it is. there's so much expertise and care and coordination that goes into everything going on here; the lighting, the production design, the camera operation. there's something really incredible about so many people working on such a scale and with such a shared vision to make good art.
Crying, being afraid, being angry or just walking down the street alone, the hardest thing for an actor is to just forget that all that stuff is going on around them. As soon as you’re out of frame it’s a madhouse. And the camera is huge and often just inches from their face but they can’t notice it even for a millisecond or the take is ruined. They make it look so easy.
23:15 this moment in the movie when Diana is so tense and she gets scared of this sound of glass and the tear running on her face... is just incredible!
Incredible to see Naomi Watts, one of the greatest actors alive so hard on herself. Oppose that with David Lynch who in interviews seems so uninterested be so attentive and gentle to his actors and crew.
He just released an 18 hour film in 2017! We all do but the man has worked his whole life. He’s got a daily weather report where we can see him everyday in the mean time.
If anything I'd like one more season of twin peaks, or another twin peaks movie to conclude the cliffhanger. Although, I wouldn't die unhappy if it stayed a cliffhanger because it was pretty good and head scratching in a good way.
So magical atmosphere . All there seemed like a special united family giving birth patiently to a new golden child . Davis taking care as the father . off course . And great Badalamenti interview !
I just adore David Lynch He had me at "Eraserhead" in 1983. I couldn't believe what I was watching; I was blown away. His movies (and his art) are strange, mysterious, sometimes disturbing, but also familiar in a way I can't explain David once said in an interview that at one time, he thought he might need psychotherapy for all the strange ideas and visions he has, so he made an appointment. Sitting with the shrink, he asked them if they could help him and what would happen to all the stuff rolling around in his head. He wanted to know how it would affect his creativity. The shrink told him it would probably diminish it, so he never went back. Thank goodness! I'm sensitive to negative energies and images; I just don't watch them anymore, but I'll watch his movies over and over. It's like he's taking me by the hand (like Camilla) and gently leading me into his dreams and psyche. Inviting me to decide what I think and feel about them. A good-natured sharing He's truly one of a kind. Mulholland Drive is my favorite ❤
He works like a chef - clean. The preparation, the verifying of the ingredients, the clean execution - the result is a known that could be repeated with variations if needed. Love the man. He's so humble for someone so curious and inventive - again, like some top flight chefs. His eyes show the passion and focus. His eyes are everywhere on that set. Bottom line, Mr Lynch takes full responsibility for every step of this process of minute increments of story. He succeeds, bit by bit. - Go do it, people, do the thing you are here to say to this world. Do it the very best you can. Life is precious beyond measure and far too short. - E. V. Hodge.
god, Naomi at 21:50 is so fucking good. to be able to do something like that on command in a huge room with like 20 or 30 people around you working, all depending on you to nail it. just incredible. that shot is basically the emotional lynchpin of the movie and she just absolutely fucking crucifies it
I like David Lynch but I object to the scene in the movie it was totally unnecessary. He could have come up with something else. But it is what it is David Lynch is a lovable weirdo but I object to that scene.
Seeing her get emotional even after the take was done (the second one) made me tear up ngl. Just knowing she was taking it seriously. I can feel Diane's rage/rejection/devastation in that scene, she really did it well
Watched the movie the other night after hearing that he passed. Naomi Watts is such an incredible actress in this movie. Lynch was a visionary and genius. He'll be much missed. Now that he's passed, hopefully younger generations will get to experience his remarkable and unforgettable films. RIP💟
I really enjoy these glimpses into making a movie. It's all us non-film folks have to see what really goes on, man it seems so hectic out there. Constant movement. And yet the end product you don't see any of it, it's pretty remarkable. A million moving parts all to get a perfect shot.
Mulholland Drive is a gem. Watched it for 1st time. It was beyond amazing, entertaining, interesting, and thought-provoking. The cast and crew did an excellent job. 👏 🎉❤❤.
Wow. So wonderful to actually see this kind of behind the scenes footage. David is such an approachable director to his cast and crew. The last BTS of the Naomi’s teary dinner scene was fantastic. Thank you so much for uploading this!
thank you. So cool to watch Watts act stay in character when she messes up a line. She’s totally inhabited the reality of the character, she is that woman, what an amazing performance
How does Naomi Watts cry like that? It looks like she is genuinely emotional at the end. Is she using some trigger memory, or just really engrossed in her character? Amazing.
Director famous for making disturbing surreal horror movies: "I like that almost better than ice cream." I love the juxtaposition between David's personality and the work he creates.
Great behind the scenes footage, so fascinating to watch parts of this masterpiece being shot. David Lynch is such a wonderful director, so kind and caring with his actors and knowing how to get the best performances out of them. And Naomi Watts wow, such a powerhouse actor showing great intensity and vulnerability. Mysterious and foreboding, Mulholland Drive will continue to grow in stature much like Citizen Kane did.
My dad was Stan Freberg. He made a famous commercial with Ann Miller dancing on top of a massive soup can. It was actually quite dangerous. She nailed it in one take. My dad turned me onto David Lynch at a young age. Thank god. Godspeed, maestro David Lynch. Say hi to Annie, she was like an auntie to me.
If anyone thinks that acting in films is glamorous/easy/"not a job," this should set them straight. Anyway, thank you for posting. What a joy to watch just a little of the magic behind one of my favorite films.
18:22 got nervous just thinking such a GORGEOUS woman like her looking at me like that lol... being an actor must be really hard honestly like how they don't get nervous looking so close to each others????
I felt more nervous for the two non-speaking actors playing waiting staff standing at the side as the scene is being set up. Not only is there the fear that they might be the ones responsible for messing up a take, but they must realise they will never be the star and those gathered around the table are elites who look at them and shiver at the thought of being so low down the pecking order.
Wonderful footage. Lynch was such a great filmmaker because of his heart, compassion, and humanity - those who are full of light can only truly explore the dark. Rest in 25 frames per second, and all other frame rates, David Lynch. Enjoy the eternal film festival in the sky. 🙏🎬
This is really helpful and cool - but I’d just like to mention that the speaker David speaks out of at the dinner table has a little cigarette perched inside it - I find that so funny.
There are millions of people in the world who could act in such a film if given the chance. The magic is finding those who can act and happen to be uniquely attractive. That's Hollywood.
Gracious video to watch! Thanks 🙏🏻 My favorite moment is at 16:45: Justin: "I wish you could sit here and enjoy with me." David: "I wish I could come and enjoy smoking, buddy". ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Another era. Lynch's masterpiece. Naomi Watts was about to become a star, and no one would ever heard of Laura Harring again except people who watch a few specific TV shows. 12:01 THIS. Every movie should be made this way. The best way. Leone's way.
It is sad. Laura is excellent in this film also but no one seems to remember her, especially because Naomi's characters have the more drastic change between them. I hope Laura is still working. I'd love to see her work with Lynch again.
Directing cinema is the highest art form. It is directing dozens or even hundreds of individual artists, hand selected, to collaborate according to a single vision. Giant expense, time, work, labor, and it is rarely done well, and only a few times in a generation do we get someone who does it as good as Lynch.
I was working in Palo Alto when a coworker of mine won two tickets through a radio program. We watched the film at a local cinema either Wednesday or Thursday after work! I will never forget the sadness I felt when Naomi's character realized the woman she loved was going to marry a Hollywood director! Great acting, atmosphere, cinematography and music! Loved the chemistry between Naomi and Laura.
Everyone, I mean everyone was great in this film! However. Naomi was light years (still is) better then anyone in the industry. As for Lynch...he's Lynch :). Best movie I've seen since its release!
I smiled and laughed in almost of all of this bts scenes I freaking love lynch and his incentive methods especially with naomi, angelo saying lynch is his best wife is pretty relatable ahhh and also loved justin's interactions with lynch lmao I mean who wouldn't have a cigarette with lynch or justin
For me as a musician, played in some bands but mostly solo, i always was fascinated by and in love with seeing people like these working together on a film. "The Sopranos" and anything David Lynch comes to mind. What a wonderful experience it must be to work together with people like that. The closest i came to sth like this was when i did the music for a dance piece. I mean, just imagine David Lynch coming over and you set up a recorder and you listen to him, play, listen, play and without too many words, you create the most biutiful music for the most amazing movie.....
This was incredible. Thank you so much. Sheesh I loved Naomi Watts in this flick and it’s one of my all time favs and to get to see a little of the process is soemthing i could watch all day and night.
the mood and atmosphere in Mulholland Drive is so otherworldly, it feels weird to see the normal reality that made it.
IKR!! the first time i watched it i understood absolutely nothing, yet, i felt like i had watched one of the best movies ever made
That's it! In cinema we give in to emotions and belive in this strange vision despite it was created in real.
@@LuisSierra42 "Brilliant. I have absolutely no idea what's going on." Homer

Yeah, she's amazing. She was my favorite part of Twin Peaks, The Return as well.
Everyone should have someone in their life that looks at them the way Naomi Watts looks at David Lynch.
Sure, unless it's some kinda stalker
@@LordMarlle your name suits you.
All you have to do is be a genius director and she will look at you.

Kind of interesting she still held an American accent while breaking character.

Naomi was great, but so was Laura! The acting.❤
I think for ideas big as David's and his loss of this not becoming a drawn out series he nailed it as a movie.
If anyone thinks that acting in films is glamorous/easy/"not a job," this should set them straight. Anyway, thank you for posting. What a joy to watch just a little of the magic behind one of my favorite films.
18:22 got nervous just thinking such a GORGEOUS woman like her looking at me like that lol... being an actor must be really hard honestly like how they don't get nervous looking so close to each others????
I felt more nervous for the two non-speaking actors playing waiting staff standing at the side as the scene is being set up. Not only is there the fear that they might be the ones responsible for messing up a take, but they must realise they will never be the star and those gathered around the table are elites who look at them and shiver at the thought of being so low down the pecking order.
RIP David Lynch and thank you for giving us art that will last forever! 🙏🏼❤️📽️🎬
Wonderful footage. Lynch was such a great filmmaker because of his heart, compassion, and humanity - those who are full of light can only truly explore the dark. Rest in 25 frames per second, and all other frame rates, David Lynch. Enjoy the eternal film festival in the sky. 🙏🎬
damn, it must be so stressful to not get a scene right when you are burning through film
Incredible footage
Awesome crew, all professional. Naomi act at the end is so powerful. David is the most gentle director I have seen! Thanks for sharing
I need to rewatch this movie. Everyone who go to work with him is so lucky!!
My favourite part of this movie is every scene involving Laura Harring
I can relate 😜
seeing david direct is very inspiring
That's some damn fine acting.
Really great to see this. Love these making of videos. To see Lynch Direct is rare.
Lynch is maximum creativity, I always find myself thinking of him when I need to make my work a little more creative
SO MANY ADS. That aside, this is great lol. Love watching him work.
it blows my mind how much work goes into filmmaking
This is really helpful and cool - but I’d just like to mention that the speaker David speaks out of at the dinner table has a little cigarette perched inside it - I find that so funny.
There are millions of people in the world who could act in such a film if given the chance. The magic is finding those who can act and happen to be uniquely attractive. That's Hollywood.
Tanks so much for having posted this. So precious today!
Gracious video to watch! Thanks 🙏🏻
My favorite moment is at 16:45:
Justin: "I wish you could sit here and enjoy with me."
David: "I wish I could come and enjoy smoking, buddy".
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Another era.
Lynch's masterpiece.
Naomi Watts was about to become a star, and no one would ever heard of Laura Harring again except people who watch a few specific TV shows.
12:01 THIS. Every movie should be made this way. The best way. Leone's way.
It is sad. Laura is excellent in this film also but no one seems to remember her, especially because Naomi's characters have the more drastic change between them. I hope Laura is still working. I'd love to see her work with Lynch again.
@@looney1023 To see her work period. I was glad to see her in a reccuring role in The Shield, but it's been, like, ten years.
@@looney1023 She was in INLAND EMPIRE, wasn't she? It's been so many years.....
After Mulholland Drive, Laura Harring starred in 23 films and 4 TV series (entire seasons). Not so bad...
This was so great to watch. BTS of a film masterpiece. Thank you. 😎
5:34 Naomi listens very carefully.
Such a HARD WORK and he was kind to everyone ❤
After i watched this, i again want to watch that movie. Thank you so much! For David and characters cheers ☺️
Rest in peace, genius
Directing cinema is the highest art form. It is directing dozens or even hundreds of individual artists, hand selected, to collaborate according to a single vision. Giant expense, time, work, labor, and it is rarely done well, and only a few times in a generation do we get someone who does it as good as Lynch.
I was working in Palo Alto when a coworker of mine won two tickets through a radio program. We watched the film at a local cinema either Wednesday or Thursday after work! I will never forget the sadness I felt when Naomi's character realized the woman she loved was going to marry a Hollywood director! Great acting, atmosphere, cinematography and music! Loved the chemistry between Naomi and Laura.
14:24 that look made my heart stop, imagine being behind that camera
So cool!…. Great what Angelo has to say about working with David…
Everyone, I mean everyone was great in this film! However. Naomi was light years (still is) better then anyone in the industry. As for Lynch...he's Lynch :). Best movie I've seen since its release!
thats one of the best films i ve ever seen
I smiled and laughed in almost of all of this bts scenes I freaking love lynch and his incentive methods especially with naomi, angelo saying lynch is his best wife is pretty relatable ahhh and also loved justin's interactions with lynch lmao I mean who wouldn't have a cigarette with lynch or justin
For me as a musician, played in some bands but mostly solo, i always was fascinated by and in love with seeing people like these working together on a film. "The Sopranos" and anything David Lynch comes to mind. What a wonderful experience it must be to work together with people like that. The closest i came to sth like this was when i did the music for a dance piece.
I mean, just imagine David Lynch coming over and you set up a recorder and you listen to him, play, listen, play and without too many words, you create the most biutiful music for the most amazing movie.....
one of the best films the best director
Love David Lynch. Such a visionary.
Mulholland Drive. Inland Empire. What masterpieces!
