Magnolia

MAGNOLIA (1999) - June 13, 2008 (Sixth Viewing? Seventh?)
Man, PT Anderson. This movie is so amazingly good on every level: the performances, the direction, the script, the cinematography, the score... this was an incredibly powerful film, which doesn't feel overlong at all even at three hours. I love everything about this film. I particularly like PT's use of the score, which I think is downright revolutionary, or at least I've never seen anything quite like it -- it's pretty much brilliant, but then everything about this film is pretty much brilliant. ****
