P.T. Anderson oozes incredible confidence and panache as a master filmmaker in-the-making in this sophomore period film about the exploits of a ragtag group of cast and crew working in the American porn industry. 

A hip, strange, stylish, oddball-ish attempt by P.T. Anderson to capture the drug-fueled exploits of Thomas Pynchon’s eccentric detective operating in the dirty, seedy 1970s.
