Mulholland Drive
2001
*****
Director: David Lynch
Cast: Naomi Watts, Laura Elena Harring, Justin Theroux, Ann Miller

After his most accessible film, The Straight Story, David Lynch is back to his usual Lynchian self. A young actress tries to help an amnesiac to retrace her identity. And that is only the beginning of the story, or is it the end? A moody and stylish mystery that never gets solved on screen. It's a puzzle that will either infuriate you or haunt your mind for days, waiting to be solved. Naomi Watts gives a stunning, star-turning performance in the lead.
