Quentin Tarantino reviews There Will Be Blood | Source: Sky Movies | PT Anderson, Daniel Day-Lewis, Daniel Plainview, Boogie Nights, Mark Wahlberg, Dirk Diggler, Magnolia, The Master, Joaquin Phoenix, Philip Seymour Hoffman | Every Paul Thomas Anderson Film, Ranked • 9. Inherent Vice (2014) • Set in 1970s Los Angeles, Inherent Vice follows protagonist Doc Sportello (Joaquin Phoenix), a stoner hippie and private detective. He is assigned with the task to investigate a kidnapping case that involves his former lover Shasta Fay Hepworth (Katherine Waterston) and her father Mickey Wolfmann (Eric Roberts), a powerful real-estate mogul. The investigation proceeds and we come across various other mysterious and suspicious characters. In the meantime, Doc unwillingly gets involved with the underworld people and jeopardizes his life. • Based on the eponymous novel by Thomas Pynchon, the film falls under the category of period neo-noir crime drama with comic undertones. Anderson’s screenplay remains loyal to the tropes of the novel to a certain extent. At the midpoint of the film, the events deviate from the original source with an ending that is surprising. The treatment of the film successfully captures an era of America that was on the brink of social and political disintegration. But, it fails to bring a cohesiveness in the narrative structure and displays an overdose of creative indulgence. This is not one of Anderson’s best works. • • 8. Hard Eight (1996) • Anderson’s debut venture Hard Eight begins with John (John C. Reilly), a homeless guy stranded in Sparks, Nevada and sitting outside a diner. A rich elderly man, Sydney (Phillip Baker Hall), who survives as a professional gambler, takes pity on him. He buys John breakfast and suggests ways to make money in the casinos. The story moves forward and now John has developed a cordiality with Sydney. He is living a decent life. But things complicate when he develops an attraction towards Sydney’s wife Clementine (Gwyneth Paltrow), a cocktail waitress who moonlights as a prostitute. • The events in the film unfold in an elliptical pattern. Most of the scenes are dialogue centric. The treatment of the film provides a taut and engaging character study. Anderson’s formalistic approach creates an engaging mood piece laden with twists and turns. Cinematographer Robert Elswit employs a low-key lighting scheme to generate the feel of a dark neo-noir drama. Over a period of time, film critics have considered the film to be an undervalued gem and as a maiden venture it was a promising beginning. • 7. Punch-Drunk Love (2002) • In this dark comedy we meet an eccentric character Barry Egan (Adam Sandler), who is the owner of a marketing company that specializes in novelty items. Barry is a bachelor who lives a mundane and socially reserved life. His lifestyle is severely criticized by his seven sisters. As the story of the film proceeds, Barry comes across a mysterious woman Lena Leonard (Emily Watson). A love affair sparks between the two. Barry discovers zeal and passion in his dull life. But an error from his past lands him up in the hands of extortionists who threaten his happiness and love-life. • Anderson attempts to radically reimagine the genre of romantic comedy with Punch-Drunk Love offering an unexpected perspective on modern-day romance. • 6. Licorice Pizza (2021) • Licorice Pizza, set in San Fernando Valley, 1973, is a coming-of-age story about discovering one’s first love situations in life that goes through a crest and trough of emotions. Protagonist Gary Valentine (Cooper Hoffman), an aspiring actor, meets Alana Kane (Alana Haim) and both develop deep feelings for each other. Gary hopes to marry Alana someday. One day Gary meets Jon Peters (Bradley Cooper), a hairdresser and film producer, and he benefits from this alliance. Alana becomes distant from Gary and begins an affair with an older man. • Anderson perfectly captures the milieu of the 70s and structures his film like a mixtape of nostalgia and memory of the bygone days. The film artistically and humorously portrays the growing up years of young people in a modern society. • 5. Magnolia (1999) • In Magnolia, the lives of various individuals intertwine on a single day in present-day California's San Fernando Valley. Earl Partridge (Jason Robards), a successful producer of television game shows, is suffering from cancer. His young, beautiful wife Linda (Julianne Moore) is dedicated to.... • Read: Every PT Anderson movie, ranked https://flickside.com/best-paul-thoma... • Subscribe to Flickside: / @flicksideofficial • Website: https://flickside.com/ • Instagram: / flickside_official • Threads: https://www.threads.net/@flickside_of... • Twitter: / flicksidem • Facebook: / flicksidemovies • #therewillbeblood #quentintarantino #tarantino #paulthomasanderson
