The 10 Best Movie Twist Endings of the Decade
6. Mullholland Drive (2001)
The set-up: A beautiful brunette car accident survivor with amnesia (Laura Elena Harring) and a fresh-faced blonde ingenue named Betty Elms (Naomi Watts) room together in an old Hollywood apartment complex, become fast friends and lesbian lovers, and attempt to solve the mystery of the death of a woman in the same complex named Diane Selwyn.
The twist: It's ambiguous, but Betty wakes up in Diane's deathbed, looking exactly like her, despondent and desperately in love with Camilla Rhodes -- an actress played by a different person earlier in the film, but who now appears to be Harring -- who rejects her callously. Strange and confusing -- but it appears much of the movie was Betty/Diane's overdose-fueled hallucination.
5. The Others (2001)
The set-up: A mother (Nicole Kidman) lives with her two young children in an English country manor house after World War II. Their father hasn't returned from the war. The children share a disease which makes them extremely photosensitive, requiring them to be under constant supervision and to be moved from room to room in order to never experience direct exposure to daylight. They are tended to by a trio of mysterious caretakers, and are visited by ghostly apparitions.
The twist: The mother and children are actually the ghosts -- the children having been smothered during a psychotic fit by their mother. Their three caretakers are also ghosts. The ghostly apparitions, meanwhile, are actually a seance leader and the new inhabitants of the home.
