watching Magnolia the other night i starting thinking about Michael Cimino and how his movie the deer hunter was a critical and commercial success, which gave him the power to do ANYTHING he wanted to for his next movie. of course we all know what that movie was...Heavens Gate..and how Cimno went over budget and filmed for months and how it BOMBED at the box office and with the critics. after heavens gate he never again captured that energy and grace he had on the deer hunter.

so, Paul Thomas Anderson does boogie nights, a critical and commercial success. that movie gave him the power to do ANYTHING he wanted to for his next movie. of course we all know what that was....Magnolia. hmmm...need i go on? lets just say PT Andersons next movie is an Adam Sander picture.
