I couldn't stop myself from mentioning it in my answer even though it's a pretty basic recommendation. But this movie fits the bill perfectly plus it's in my ultimate top 3.
If you enjoy dream-like pacing, unsettling atmosphere that feels very off and almost stressful, characters and events that at first don't seem to make sense yet keep you glued to the screen, then you have to watch it.
It's also beautifully shot - even if you don't like the movie you will appreciate the Silencio scene on its own. Angelo Badalamenti absolutely nailed the whole soundtrack as always.
Mulholland Drive is not a riddle so it can't be "solved". But you will think about this movie for at least next few days - connecting different points, noticing specific things. It's just like waking up from a particularly vivid and intense dream, and keeping it in the back of your head for the rest of the day.
Still can't believe David Lynch is gone

🌀Immediately after finishing this one I was even more confused than by Lost Highway, but after piecing together the story I think it’s very cool. It helps to look at the whole thing and then zoom in rather than look at one tiny thing and expect that to explain the entire movie. I see the similarities with Lost Highway a lot especially with the motif of doing something bad and having some kind of delusion to come to terms with that as well as Lynch criticizing Hollywood and the film industry. Good movie 👍👍👍

I think they’re all so good but also pretty much all so crazy that I don’t know if there is really an ideal first one to watch but Mulholland Drive is so incredible and looks so good and just every actor and the way they talk and everything is so good and it’s also more fun in a weird way than most of the other David Lynch movies I’ve seen
incredible movie
