Punch-Drunk Love

Posted on August 17, 2018 by Village Vidiot

I really liked this Paul Thomas Anderson written and directed Adam Sandler vehicle about an oppressed, henpecked misfit filled with rage who makes his way through life badly. He finds a soul-mate (Emily Watson) almost as weird as he is, but after an intense conflict with folks from Utah (the brothers, who are brothers) after he calls a phone sex line. The film is really very well done, has Sandler do a fine job of acting. More excellent work from Philip Seymour Hoffman as the owner of the sex line. See this one. I’ll bet Anderson is Ernie Anderson’s son. His company is Ghoulardie Productions. Bronwen didn’t like this very much
