A friend of mine who works for Pixar says the sound designer Gary Rydstrom confirmed to him that Paul Thomas Anderson told him the film was about aliens, and was a key part of the sound design for the film.

Makes sense to me, when I think about the way that movie sounded. Also all of the colors etc. Brilliant.

Is Naomi Watts in it?
I remember Emily Watson as the love interest.
but I can bring to mind the phone sex operator.

Naomi Watts is pretty awesome though.

Ha, mental slip. Emma as his love interest would have made for a much stranger movie.

I was blown away by this film and had never considered the superman analogy. I love it. Makes me want to watch it again. I really love Adam Sandler when he's not trying to be funny. I also loved him when he was trying to be funny up until Big Daddy, after that film he lost me.

The weird thing is that in punch drunk love Adam play the same character he played in all the movies preceding it. A man that switches between being a push over and a maniac.

I guess you're right.... I hadn't thought of it that way. I guess it's the same character but without the flaming bag of poo on the porch.
Oh my god, old man Clemens hates shit
