Reply to comment by AlanMorlock in "TÁR" had everything to be unforgettable: Cate Blanchett as an amoral composer? How can you have that and make a movie as boring as "TÁR" turned out to be? by Lili_Danube

I thought Naomi Watts in MULHOLLAND DRIVE was a interesting twist in that I thought she was terrible for most of it until I get to the last 15 minutes and everything changes and I had to revisit the movie and it changed my take on Watts, given the context, and I thought it was a brilliant performance but that only worked because of how the movie ended.

Yes! Watts always comes to mindin this context as well. Another example is Rosamund Pike in certain sections of Gone Girl when it's portraying the fakely idealized narrative how her and Ben Affleck's characters got together.
