Fire Walk With Me is up there for me. I loved it from the moment I saw it the day it opened (with a whole group of people who HATED it) and it has only gotten better over time. It's his unheralded masterpiece.

Well, one of the things that's great about the movie is how it portrays a certain kind of post-60s disillusionment, and a subsequent turn towards a more shallow kind of apathy within the culture. The movie both celebrates and condemns this, which is partly why it endures. It's very culturally and politically prescient…

It's not so much about whether or not one finds Frank scary. But there's nothing run-of-the-mill about that character—he's a singular creation. And the way Jeffrey and Dorothy get drawn into the psyho-sexual atmosphere of Frank's world is pretty perfectly realized by Lynch. They are all complicated, conflicted…

Agreed on Death Trilogy. That will be Van Sant's legacy.

I almost posted this last night. It's a perfect movie.

This. This is correct.

"How rude!"

I'm sure someone will add it above you in response to someone else, but it's amazing that No Country did not come up sooner.

Shampoo does not get enough love. That movie is fantastic.

Yep, album is perfect. The state's a little flat though…

So many women my age have been obsessed with this book their whole lives.

I think that constitutes a counterpoint.

The Legend of Zelda is a perfect game.

I see your Raging Bull and raise you Taxi Driver.

I don't love the whole album, but it's my favorite "sounding" album by them for sure.

"Let Down"—Radiohead

It's pretty amazing how Lynch pulled Mulholland Drive from the TV wreckage and made it into such an amazing movie. It works so well that I can't imagine that story going any other way.

Good call on Jesse James.

Clue!

Yes to Stop Making Sense, but since many people object to the Tom Tom Club break, I'll go with the performance of This Must Be The Place.
