Mulholland Drive (2001)
Mulholland Drive is a confusing mess of a film--but is often brilliant. That it was complete entertainment for one evening, even though I had seen it before and previously disliked it, surprised me. As I see it now, over twenty years later, it strikes me as an unsettling work of art, one that is perhaps incomplete (Lynch's "body without a head"), with several parallel plots and a myriad of vignettes suggesting so much.

Issue 237
I have acquired Ka-Azar the Amazing, issue 237 to be exact, and it scares the shit out of me. I'm a collector of rare comics. Well, not really a collector. I never keep them for very long, you see. I prefer to sell comics for big bucks. I buy them from Goodwill, garage sales, estate sales, anywhere I can buy cheap and sell high. I'm in it for the profit, pure and simple, but today I may have found something I wasn't meant to own.
