As Naomi Watts continues her 2017 TV and film renaissance à la Matthew McConaughey in 2012, it seems there's one movie from her past she will never escape.
Namely David Lynch's dreamy amnesiac thriller Mulholland Drive.
Speaking to Collider, the Twin Peaks actress was questioned on just how many days a week she gets asked to explain what's going on in the 2001 masterpiece.
The answer? Often.
"I wouldn't put it down to days in a week," she said. "But there was a time it was ignited when people were saying it was the best film of the 20th century and things like that."
(At this point we feel compelled to point out that Mulholland Drive was actually released in 2001, making it the best film of the 21st century. But, apart from that she's totally right, as a poll commissioned by the BBC last year crowned Mulholland Drive the best film of the century so far.)
What to Read Next
"I feel like it will never stop," Naomi added.
"I'll be with my cane... but that's what I love about it. It stands up – that film – and it is open to interpretation. "
Mulholland Drive stars Watts as a Hollywood-hopeful who arrives in Los Angeles to find she is sharing a house with a stranger (Laura Harring) who can't remember her identity, leading her down a path where fantasy and reality collide.
So, yes, it's a David Lynch film.

But what does Naomi think of the man – and her Twin Peaks co-star – himself?
"With David, there's so much there on the page and you obviously always have questions but you really don't get definitive answers," she added.
"He wants it all to be up for interpretation."
