...BOOGIE NIGHTS' director Paul Thomas Anderson is an original, alhough he clearly has favorite directors whom he emulates to some degree; but he doesn't steal scenes from them, or reference them in some post-Tarantino haze of ill-informed cinematic trivialogue, nay.

2007-09-07 17:23:46 by Kim Morgan in Sunset Gun
American cinema isnt really that dangerously sexy anymore. It likes to pretend it is, and some stars will put it out there (in nude scenes, in magazine spreads, or simply in the work of Maggie Gyllenhaal -- check Sherrybaby and Secretary for proof), but in my mind (and with some expections) it lacks the edge and thrill of say, Peggy Cummins...

2008-04-13 16:06:07 by Editor in Ferdy on Films, etc.
...Boogie Nights (1997) and Magnolia (1999), were, in essence, extraordinary collections of character sketches without resolutions to match. Boogie Nights last act became a familiar guns-and-coke crime film, though with a dash of absurdism, and Magnolia s even more surreal frog rain covered up some weak story terminations. But I could still give...

...Boogie Nights vs. Rushmore . I think this is likely to be the most decisive match-up. A KO by Rushmore in an early round. For me, Boogie Nights fell into the trap of the overly-sprawling period piece trying to cram too much history into a single film's running time. The salacious content of the history couldn't save it from its unfocused...
