How to define the "first master" period, it would be sloppy to evaluate only with regularization or safety first. At this time, PTA has already shown its personal style (smooth long shot, mid-section narrative), and it can be regarded as a later memorial work even if it has not yet formed. , "Gangster Complex" has the development of the end of the "Godfather Fever" (with a sense of film noir), but it seems that it cannot be overly praised for this, after all, it cannot save the script and the...

Same universe as his [Cigarette and Coffee]; - "What the hell do you want?" - "I want you to pinch that fucking cigarette" - "I won't pinch this one out. "-"Okay, then can I ask you for a cigarette?"; Jules didn't have the miraculous bodyguard from [Pulp Fiction] this time, and got all six shots; I really like the music taste of...

Paul Thomas Anderson's feature film debut. Compared to Boogie Nights, Magnolia is much inferior, so it seems that it is not necessarily a high-quality product produced by PTA. However, when considering the fact that PTA was only 26 years old when this film was made, only It's a scumbag to be able to sigh. Philip Baker Hall rarely plays the leading role, making all the other big names eclipsed. Gwyneth Paltrow is really not old at...

PTA's debut novel, the script is not very mature, and the rhythm is too slow. I can't guess the direction of the story after seeing more than half of it. Fortunately, the ending is clean, and the details of Sydney's cuffs are particularly good. In fact, I thought it would be a veteran and a rookie like "The Color of Money", but it turned out to be about a man and his past, with some self-redemption and a little helplessness, Philip Baker Hall's interpretation is very...

Good in its own category
Not my favorite PTAnderson movie, since as I pointed out elsewhere, I see the father-son obsession in American films an intolerable cliche. But the acting is very strong, and the plot, in spite of all the drama, is quite plausible.
Philip Baker Hall here plays an aged and tired professional...

Sydney: I have a friend in Los Angeles. Someone... maybe someone who can help. I can make a call for you, tell him you're a friend, so on and so forth, and we can work this thing out here. I think if you need help paying for your mother's funeral, we can work it out. I want you to see that my reasons for doing this are not selfish, only this: I'd hope that you would do the same for me.
John Finnegan: I would. Thank you.
Sydney: [shakes John's hand] It's always good to meet a new friend. I'll see you later.

Sydney: [to Jimmy] I have the money to give you right now, in this moment. I will give you all that I have. Maybe before you were gonna kill me. Maybe. I don't know. I know John, and I love him like he was my own child. But I can tell you this: I don't want to die. I killed his father. I can tell you what it was. This is not an excuse. I'm not begging for clemency. All that matters, I do not wish to sacrifice my life for John's well-being. But I will sacrifice this money for mine because you have asked me. Because after this, I will have done all I can for John and for myself. I'm going to ask you with all the heart and sincerety that I have, please do not put a bullet in me. And, please, don't tell John what I've done. I trust that once I gave you this money, you and I will take separate paths and that this negotiation will settle everything. That is my hope. I don't wanna die.
