Sight and Sound's 'Top 100 Greatest Films of all time' is the critics poll the magazine takes each decade with more than 1,600 critics, to test the temperature of what is considered a classic!
This year, we will screen one of the choices from the poll each month, as part of our new Sunday Classics series. At the screenings, we invite you to join the conversation and vote for YOUR own classic, which we'll screen at the end of 2024 as part of our very own Audience Poll!
This month we are delighted to screen Mulholland Drive (voted number 8 by Sight & Sound), Lynch's dreamlike and mysterious twisty neo-noir with an unconventional structure that features a mesmerizing performance from Naomi Watts as a woman on the dark fringes of Hollywood.
This was Lynch's final attempt to bring film as art into the mainstream. It is a masterpiece; a beautifully realised, emotionally exhausting critique of the banality of corporate cinema, and an invitation to audiences to experience a transcendent work of art.
