i agree w/ david lynch but the sound design i think most interesting is
fire walk w/ me
(and some of the stuff in twin peaks)
esp. the hearing aided screamer david lynch plays and
when he gives a coded message at the airport that is seemingly
non-sensical
the audio to go w/ flickering fluorescent lights - wind...
sometimes it is that he even uses the sound
sometimes it is how

i like bruce lee's films for the sound in the fight scenes
easy rider - the new orleans cemetery scene
(mostly brought to mind cause i just saw the last movie)
solaris both tarkovsky + soderbergh
to parsifal
dreams by kurosawa - the snowstorm one
last days + elephant
polanski's repulsion - esp. when she is raped
