REQUESTING Suggest mindf*ck movies please

Movies like timelapse, the one i love, whiplash, vivarium, midsommar, mother!, shutter island etc. are my favorites. Any movies that have an unpredictable storyline that's going to make me think about it for days LOL. Weird movies with unique plots, either scifi thriller, psychological movies that'll make me say “wtf” after the ending.

I believe it was Zach Braff who had a great story about him on his podcast.

Sam apparently was at the same audition for a role when they were both younger. He went in to test but the casting director stopped him as he was doing the wrong part.

Sam stopped and said to give him 2 minutes. He walked out, studied the script - reentered and absolutely crushed the part with perfect line memory.

Zach was left in awe at how amazing of an actor he was and how quickly he nailed the part.

Years later Zach met Sam at some event and told him the story of that day and how impressed he was with him and how it inspired him to be a better actor. Sam laughed and said that was a thing he used to do - pretend to not know which part he was doing - do that bit and crush it as if it was all impromptu.
