Firewalk With Me blew my mind.

QFT.

Mulholland Drive and Firewalk With Me are great and Blue Velvet is quite good as well. Mulholland Drive is easily the most emotionally moving film I have ever seen.

Blue Velvet is one of my favorite films of all-time. I think it's tough to compare the more linear and conventional Blue Velvet to any of the more disjointed films like Inland Empire or Mulholland Drive or Lost Highway, but they do all have a common aspect in their darkness and sense of alienation.

I think these are necessary themes that are too often neglected in mainstream films, at least in any meaningful way.
