Inherent Vice, GFT
11 – 13 February, 2018
Paul Thomas Anderson’s adaptation of Thomas Pynchon’s noir novel cast Joaquin Phoenix as Larry ‘Doc’ Sportello, a laid-back Los Angeles private detective who exists comfortably in the ’70s hippy culture of the time. When an ex-flame turns up on his doorstep one day looking for his help, Doc is drawn into a confounding web of lies, violence and dentistry. Something of a departure of Anderson, Inherent Vice showcases the director’s more comedic side whilst retaining his powerful characterisation and ability to authentically evoke a time and place.
