Widely regarded as one of David Lynch's finest works, this luscious, surreal and unsettling neo-noir thriller is one of the true masterpieces of the new millennium.
Blonde Betty Elms (Naomi Watts) has only just arrived in Hollywood to become a movie star when an an enigmatic brunette with amnesia (Laura Harring) stumbles into her life. But as the pair fall in love and their resulting search for the woman's identity leads them into a ever deepening web of mystery, things begin to get very weird indeed. Unashamedly bizarre, let yourself be swept away in Lynch’s seemingly unrelated vignettes that eventually connect in mysterious and unpredictable ways, as well as some surreal and darkly comic scenes and images all add to the cryptic narrative.
A seductive and scary vision of Los Angeles’s dream factory, this tale of love, jealousy, and revenge really is like no other you have seen before or since. Unmissable.
