Mulholland Drive is a 2001 American neo-noirmystery film written and directed by David Lynch(pictured) and starring Justin Theroux, Naomi Watts, Laura Harring, Ann Miller, and Robert Forster. It tells the story of an aspiring actress named Betty, newly arrived in Los Angeles, who befriends an amnesiac woman hiding in an apartment that belongs to Betty's aunt. The film includes seemingly unrelated vignettes that eventually interlock, along with darkly comic scenes and images, presented in Lynch's signature surreal style. Much of the filming took place in 1999 as a television pilot. After it was rejected by television executives, Lynch gave the pilot an ending and completed the project as a feature film. The cryptic ending, which he declined to explain, has left the general meaning of the film's events open to interpretation. Mulholland Drive was acclaimed by critics and earned award nominations for Lynch at the 2001 Cannes Film Festival and 74th Academy Awards. The film is now widely regarded as one of his finest works.

American singer Alyssa Milano has recorded numerous songs. After signing a five-album deal with Japanese record label Pony Canyon, Inc., Milano released her debut studio album, Look in My Heart, in March 1989. Following the release of her debut album, Milano released an exercise video, titled Alyssa Milano's Teen Steam, and recorded its theme song along with a rap. Milano's second studio album, Alyssa, was released later that year, followed by her first compilation album, The Best in the World: Non-Stop Special Remix/Alyssa's Singles in 1990. In 1991, Milano contributed to the charity single "Voices That Care" as one of the choir members. The record was followed by Milano's third studio album, Locked Inside a Dream, in May 1991. Milano's fourth studio album, Do You See Me?, was released in May 1992, and her final record was her second compilation album, The Very Best of Alyssa Milano, released in January 1995. Throughout her musical career, Milano had little involvement with the songwriting and production of her albums. She did not express any interest in releasing her music in the United States, and in May 2013, she said that she had not returned to Japan since the end of her music career. (Full list...)
