On this episode of Remainders we start our Paul Thomas Anderson double feature with Magnolia. PTA’s early epic of intertwined lives and coincidences vs fate and the sins of the father. A pivotal movie during the Suncoast days, we check out how this ranks among PTA’s career 25 years on.
Other topics include ranking PTA, Tom Cruise and his auteur phase vs his movie star status, other PTA regulars as we get ready for Boogie Nights on our 100th episode, Christopher Nolan and The Odyssey, Bonnie Tyler and Holding Out for a Hero, and whether Short Circuit 2 has the best final chase scene ever.
