    contrary to popular belief it is extremely enjoyable sober. so funny. more or less the platonic ideal of what you could expect from paul thomas anderson doing a thomas pynchon novel. immediately wanted to watch it again.

    is this movie good? impossible to say. did i enjoy it? yes, very much.

    watched because timothee chalamet pretending to be bob dylan in the trailer before anora was so ridiculous that we burst out laughing and agreed to get stoned and watch this one. biopics are bad movies because people’s lives are boring even if they’re famous, but this was a decently reverent and natural feeling snapshot of the era i find most interesting of one of the people…

    ★★½

    A dense, self-serious, humorless, interminable slog with lots of pretty pictures of the color beige in which you are asked to sympathize with one imperialistic faction over another because they have hair and can use the force. Any plot point of interest is foreshadowed at least five times.

    pta makes movies with bizarre, niche plots and unconventional, enigmatic arcs that are absolutely stunning in the way they are written, acted, and filmed. this is one of those. by far the best movie starring an anti-social joaquin phoenix with poor posture, and also possibly philip seymour hoffman’s best role, playing a fake l ron hubbard more convincing than the real one. also i hate to be that guy but this was the first film shot on 65mm in over a decade, and you can actually tell. this movie is just so god damn pretty.
