5 Theories That Help Explain David Lynch's Mulholland Drive

4. Rita€™s Car Accident Was Actually A Dream

Limo The accident at the beginning at Mulholland Drive that leads a perplexed and stunned Rita to wonder to Betty is actually a subconscious dream sequence by Betty. The car accident itself is a deeper meaning for the relationship between Rita and Betty. The location where Rita€™s accident happened is the same location where Camilla picks up Betty and takes her to the film director€™s party Adam Kesher which is at Mulholland Drive. It is here where Betty discovers that her lover Camilla and Kesher announce their engagement. The car slamming into the limo is a metaphor for how Betty felt when Camilla and Kesher right in front of Betty laughing and kissing announced their engagement.
