Mulholland Drive. I think the idea is that Naomi Watts comes to Hollywood to succeed, but doesn't. The last five minutes of the film is this sad reality. The preceding two hours is her dreamlike fantasy of what she hoped for - almost as if she's imagining a movie. The objects, people and moments...
I used to commute from Ealing Broadway, and it used to baffle me as to why they employed people to collect all the Metros off trains. A westbound central line train would pull in and everybody would get off as it's the end of the line. The train would then become an eastbound one, and fill up...

I'm sure there used to be a website somewhere that generated Daily Mail headlines for you. It would throw up things like:
"Looney asylum council sponges our Princess Diana pandemic" and "Illegal benefit fraud terrorist bans nursery places".
And so on. Add in a few phrases like "Is this what...
