Adapted from a book by the same name written by eccentric author Thomas Pynchon, the film follows the convoluted misadventures of a stoner/private detective named Larry "Doc" Sportello (Joaquin Phoenix). Doc's ex-girlfriend (Kathryn Waterston) comes to him one night asking for help solving a case involving her current boyfriend, a rich and powerful real-estate mogul, and his inner circle. What happens next, which is 90 percent of the rest of the movie, is pure, untampered vagueness. VICE FROM PAGE 5 Something I can say with absolute certainty right now to almost every moviegoer is this: don't see this movie and expect to understand the plot. It is merely a nebulous series of events, twisted together into a whisper of a storyline. Instead, I advise sitting back and letting Anderson take you on a relaxed, smooth-flowing journey through the 1970s Los Angeles underbelly. It's important to understand that this film is not meant to be a typical rising action, climax, resolution piece of work. Instead, the film is meant to honor and immortalize one of America's most influential, difficult and reclusive counter-culture WARNER BROS novelists on the big screen. The most important and revolutionary thing about this movie is its flow. It's almost like a lucid dream that you try desperately to enjoy, only to realize the harder you try to hold onto it, the looser your grip on it becomes. If you just lean back, relax and let the film take you where it wants you to go, you'll understand what it's trying to say, which is: hold on to your values, hold on to love and never doubt yourself. Watch Doc closely throughout the film and you'll realize that these are among the most important lessons to be gained. Phoenix explores an untapped skill set that further adds to his impressive arsenal of acting abilities. There is something lovable and charming about Doc, but underneath you can sense an unshakable feeling of his place in this world that is fueled by a deep, bridled aggression. Not many actors could pull off a character like this, but Phoenix does it beautifully. Paul Thomas Anderson has carved out an image for himself over the years as a philosophical filmmaker whose work reaches some higher level of human understanding. He is a master of showmanship — a smoke-and-mirrors director who grew up in a show business family and has spent his entire life learning how to carve out a certain type of image for himself and his films. Anderson and his wily style take a backseat in this film, and he allows Pynchon's book to take the reins. It's a sign of maturity in a director, and a quality that any artist can hold a deep respect for.
