5 Most Famous Lesbian Scenes

>> NEXT: Wild Things

1. Mulholland Dr. (2001)

The first intimate encounter between Naomi Watts and Laura Elena Harring is soft and sweet ... but because this is a David Lynch movie, naturally the relationship between these two women becomes darker and more complicated. Watts, as aspiring starlet Betty Elms (at this point in the film, at least), gets tangled up with Harring's gorgeous amnesiac Rita.

In a movie full of twists, this is a rare moment of pure, instinctive emotion.
