One of the most moving films ever made

Rating: 10/10 (5 December 1999)

This is one the most beautiful and moving films I have ever seen. It is clear that Lynch is a man of extraordinary vision. For me the most remarkable aspect is the way the film never resorts to overblown sentimentality instead letting the warmth and sadness of the story move you.
Anthony Hopkins gives IMHO his career best performance, but it is John Hurts virtuoso performance that steals the show. The final scene set to Dadagio for Strings, when John is removing the pillows from his bed touched me in a way no other scene ever has.
I give this film 10/10
