David Lynch’s Mulholland Drive has been named Film of the Decade by the LA Film Critics Association.The 13-strong top 10 list (don’t ask me!) makes for interesting reading:
1. Mulholland Drive
2. There Will Be Blood
3. Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind
4. Brokeback Mountain
5. No Country For Old Men/Zodiac
6. Yi Yi
7. 4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days/The Lord Of The Rings trilogy
8. Spirited Away
9. United 93/Y Tu Mama Tambien
10. Sideways
Curiously tied in 11th are Children Of Men, Talk To Her and Wall*E. The Incredibles makes 13th, ahead of Memento. The Hurt Locker is 25th, ahead of The White Ribbon.
Clearly the films that touched the LA critics were mostly pretty bleak…

Wow - what a weird selection of films.
Mulholland Drive? Hmm.
Not sure about There will be Blood either. It was ok, but still feels to me like a film you feel obliged to like, rather than actually liked. Far too self-conciously 'epic' for my liking.
I'm surprised Hurt Locker is even in there - it was a good film, but one of the best of the 00's? I'd say no for the weirdly cheesy ending.
