Review of Magnolia (1999) by Aj_13 — 25 Mar 2022
I thought PTA couldn't possibly surpass his achievement in Boogie Nights, but Magnolia has proved me wrong, and I couldn't be happier.
Treating forgiveness and past through various subplots, Magnolia is one of the most narratively-ambitious films I recall watching, with a neverending cast, hipnotic camera work (which mutates through the film, alongside its dramatic tone) and a OUTSTANDING screenplay.
The "frog" moment is probably my favourite scene from PTA's whole filmography.
