    Pursuing the clarity of the plot logic, but not willing to give up the complexity of the characters that are loyal to the original work, and in order to reproduce the psychedelic sense of that unique temperament era, PTA's 2.5-hour new film is unavoidable. This adaptation is really a thankless and difficult task. If you want to fly into "Fear of Las Vegas", the multi-clue story involving the sense of the times and California's memory will not be able to show; What about the...

    PTA could have made a film like Chinatown, but he made it into the hero's Odyssey journey. The protagonist is like Bloom wandering in this sinful and hypocritical city. The characters and cases are not important, the important thing is that The city of the era, the sense of the times is more important than...

    Wonderful! The characters are complex, the amount of information is huge, the literature is extremely strong, and the brain is unusual. It seems to be a piece of sand full of psychedelic flavors, but it actually has a clear and profound core, including the dark and complex aspects of the overall social form of the United States at that time. Criticism and reflection, the special background of the times, the film is more and more charming, the black humor inside is very funny, the banana...

    PTA made an absurdly realistic marijuana psychedelic movie that is difficult to define. It unfolds an atypical crime story around various characters and large dialogues throughout the film. It seems to be dizzy but like a drug. Like addictive. The lines and pictures are still elegant, and the details are very serious. There should be no suspense in the Oscar for the best adapted screenplay. Thomas Pynchon is a representative of postmodern literature, and PTA has restored the original almost...

    The level of editing is high. Under the shell of the detective film is the disclosure of the glamorous and moral decay of American society in the 1970s, and a glimpse of the social operation process of drug organizations. Of course, there must be a good person who relics for...

    Hippie elegy

    The first time I watched this film was in May last year. There were three Paul Thomas Anderson films in the theater on the weekend: "Magnolia", "The Blood Is Coming" and "The Nature Is Evil". My favorite is this "Sexual Evil". In the film, the hippies are spraying clouds and fog, and the story is...

    The opinion of an ordinary person.

    Personally, I am not a liberal arts major, nor a philosopher and history enthusiast. For someone who wants to stay sober, reading Pinxin’s novels is a way of enriching his own ideas by looking at people’s ideas that are richer than ours. In this way, for me, it feels like the author just...
