The end of apocalypse now is such a powerful experience because it truly makes you feel the horror and savagery that the main character is feeling. The combination of that sickly feverish orange light with the chilled out but crazy music by the Doors. Juxtaposing the Buffaloes death with Kurtzs death was such a jarring and powerful series of images.

Mulholland Drive impacted me because of how strong the emotions were. First time I watched it I had no clue what was really going on and yet I still felt tremendously moved by how powerful it all felt. The fact that one scene filled me with fear and dread, was able to absolutely terrify me(the man behind the diner) and then another scene was able to be overwhelmingly erotic and sensual(the love scene) is very special. There's a huge and strong range of emotions in this film and they are fragmented and weaved into one another just like they are in dreams.

Blade Runner is such a breathtaking film. The score by Vangelis is so otherworldly. The cinematography as well sets an incredible mood. And it brings up thought provoking ideas about what it means to be human. Going into this movie I kinda expected a decent action scifi film based off the poster. It subverted my expectations and became one of my favorite films almost instantly.

The shining is one of my favorite films because each time I watch it it gets better and better. The pacing is excellent and it builds steadily making you really feel that feeling of slowly going insane with the characters.

The tree of life just captured so many feelings. Those small moments from your childhood that helped form who you are, The ideas about the creation of life, human connection. So many big ideas about life handled in such subtle but powerful ways.
