Capital "A" Acting

I had no clue what I was heading into when I pressed play. I think it's really hard to make a bad movie when you have Philip Seymour Hoffman, Jaoquin Phoenix, Amy Adams, and Jesse Plemons leading the charge. Hoffman and Phoenix are fully absorbed into their characters and the film forces its audience to try and follow these conversations that somehow feel super grounded (due to Hoffman's amazing delivery) and unsettling at the same time. This movie really could not have worked without the talent of these actors.Amy Adams does so much with so little screen time; I do wish we got more time with her but I think her lack of presence contributes to the messaging of the film. She gives an extremely pulled back/subtle performance of a woman that is truly in the middle of the storm.This feels fresh and distinct from any other movie I've watched, so I'd definitely recommend it.

Paul Thomas Anderson Master-craftsman

Freddie Quell (Joaquin Phoenix) is a sexually perversed WWII vet who takes on Lancaster Dodd (Philip Seymour Hoffman) as a father figure.

I wished for Paul Thomas Anderson to be declared a master himself. The craftsmanship is certainly evident. The film looks beautifully sad. The acting is completely unique. Joaquin Phoenix does a truly intense portrayal of a broken man. Philip Seymour Hoffman is convincing. Amy Adams plays PSH's wife who turns out to be much more perversed. There is a lot to like about this movie but the intensity of Joaquin's performance does wear thin. It can really grind down the audience. Overall, this is expertly made.
