Punch Drunk Love at GFT
14 February, 2022 – 20.35 p.m.
If Licorice Pizza has left you hungry for more big screen Paul Thomas Anderson, consider this 35mm screening of Punch-Drunk Love our Valentine’s Day gift to you.
Shifting gears from his more sprawling works, Anderson’s 2002 character drama drew an unlikely career-best performance from Adam Sandler as beleaguered small business-owner Barry Egan. Barry’s lonely life is shaken up when he falls for one of his sister’s co-workers (Emily Watson), but the romance is threatened when he falls victim to extortion from a crooked mattress salesman running a phone-sex line. Touching and genuinely funny, this is a wholly unique addition to the careers of both Anderson and Sandler.
