Punch-Drunk Love (2002 Paul Thomas Anderson)

A remarkable film, unlike any other, particularly in its incessant soundtrack, which emulates the workings of a troubled mind. Startlingly, stunningly filmed with remarkable tracking shots, many moments where you could freeze and frame the still (Robert Elswit). A meaty role for Adam Sandler, with Emily Watson, Luis Guzman, Mary Lynn Rajskub, Philip Seymour Hoffman.

Jon Brion also has the room to write a charming love theme. Leslie Jones has put it together.

Chortlingly funny. And we find ourselves back in Hawaii for the third time today ('Modern Family' season 1 being the first).


Seems to me to be a red and blue colour theme thing going on. Noticed certain photos in backgrounds too. Lots of subtle stuff in evidence.
