Mulholland Drive : Opening Scenes / Fotografische Inszenierungen
Bok av Eckhart Schmidt
So beginnen Geschichten - fotographische Inszenierungen: Girls - Am Rande einer Straße. Sexy. Aufreizend. Am Rande der Verzweiflung. In verfänglichen Situationen. Verloren. Verlassen. Zu allem bereit. Girls - am Mulholland Drive.
»If you ever want to fly
Mulholland Drive
Up in the Sky
Stand on a cliff and look down there
Don t be scared
You are alive«
Michael Stipe (R.E.M.) »Electrolite«
»It is a drive and a highway, running eastwest, the supreme vantage point for the entirety of Los Angeles and the San Fernando Valley. You can stand up there and feel like Christ - or the Devil. Mulholland Drive allows you both roles.«
David Thomson »Beneath Mulholland«
»Beneath Mulholland there are bodies buried:
Ghosts, spooks, those flaming images so pale
and filmy, the intimates we never met.«
Vladimir Nabokov »Los Angeles Rhapsody«
»I wanna go down over Mulholland
I wanna write her name in the sky
Gonna free fall out into nothing
Gonna leave the world for a while
And I'm free falling, free falling ...«
Tom Petty »Free Fallin'«
