Mulholland Drive 2001
Great Masterpiece. My favorite work from the genius director David Lynch. I love the story, the question you ask yourself when you watch the movie for the first time, the clues. The scary atmosphere made by the wonderful camera perspectives, realy great editing and music was magical. Loved the twists, the actors and the directing of Lynch. Beautiful, dark and intelligent movie!
