Anyone seriously analyze the movie Mulholland Drive?

I have dissected this film numerous times with notes. I have read college thesis papers on this film. I have had discussions with film junkies time and time again. I followed Lynch's clues and understand their meaning. I get almost all of the symbolism, colors, and imagery used to tell the story. The only piece of the puzzle I cannot confidently say that I am sure about is....
Who is the Blue Haired Lady?
I've heard everything from Aunt Ruth, to Diana's soul, to Lucifer. What are other Lynch fan's thoughts?

Lucifer.
I was never sold on "The Devil himself," but as a representation of centralized evil, yes.

It's been too long since I've seen this. Need to re-watch.

I've studied two scenes very closely. Just saying.

I came into this thread because I'm a fan of the movie.
Anyway - I'm in the middle of a rewatch of The Shield right now - I started Season 5 yesterday. The episode I will watch today features: Becca Doyle, the defense attorney that takes up the strike team as a client - Becca Doyle is played by none other than:
Laura Harring
Even not so "dolled up", pretty
(ETA: The first Latina crowned Miss USA - 1985).

I'm in the camp that she is somehow related to death - if not death, herself. And, although Blue Haired, not necessarily old, but middle-aged.
The MC seems more overtly a "Luciferian"-type character, although he is performing for the blue haired lady. Evil is more personified by the beast behind Winkie's, or the old couple (grandparents are what I always assumed), as the beast releases the demonic forms of them at the end.
She gets the last word in the film. She presides over the film's single most important scene (Club Silencio), plus the hair color is matched to the blue keys - symbols or markers of death in the film. So, death, finality, closure - these constitute her domain.
I've seen it speculated that she represents G-d in the film and that would make sense, if the MC was supposed to be Satan.
