10 Movies Nobody Could Stop Thinking About

David Lynch's consensus magnum opus is his intoxicating 2001 neo-noir fever dream Mulholland Drive, a film that, whether you love it or hate it, profess to understand it or have no idea what it's about, will rattle around in your head for weeks, months, or perhaps even years after watching it.

Lynch has shrewdly avoided explaining much at all about his materially strange mystery film - a sure work of two halves which, depending on your interpretation, may or may not inform one another.

All the same, Mulholland Drive's startling array of imagery - from horrific, to hilarious, to sexy - leaves a deeply visceral impression, of a filmmaker working at the untethered height of their powers and delivering precisely the art they envisioned.

It's such a rich exercise in tone and mood that, once it's finished, you'll almost certainly want to watch it again to try and unlock its full meaning - whatever that might be.

Most of Lynch's films could be on this list, honestly, but Mulholland Drive has sustained an unnerving, electrifying power quite unlike anything else in his filmography.
