Amazing Filmmaking

Rating: 10/10 (10 November 2001)

David Lynch never disappoints. He has always been and will always be a master craftsman. I believe "Mulholland Dr." to be his best yet. Well-helmed and amazingly well-acted, the film attacks your senses from the first frame, and doesn't let you go till the final credits. I have a collection of favorite moments from this masterpiece, but the one that sticks, that plays in my head over and over again, is the heartbreaking Club Silencio scene. Easily the best picture of the year (followed, I think modestly, by "Memento"), I hate that it will inevitably be ignored come Oscar time. Not that the awards matter. Lynch is far above that. A true artist paints what he likes.
