It's Freddie QUELL Great review! I've seen the film twice and I can't wait to pour over the Blu-Ray.

What do you think was the best scene? I choose the scene in jail. It was crazy to see Quill get that unleashed

[acsc1312]

Still the processing scene for me.

[CoolioD1]

I like the processing scene where he's going from the window to the wall and changing Amy Adams eye colour and shit like that.

That too. So many feels!

[Jack Nevada]

The split second shot of Amy Adams' eyes turning black freaked me out! Damn i need to see this again

i can't wait to watch this. 

[The Futurist]

Cute.

[Jack Nevada]

I'm always bothered when in movies taking place in the past you have people who don't look like the people of that time period. 

The Master had amazingly authentic, late 40's faces.

 

 

 

 

 

Paul Thomas Anderson is, no pun intended, a master at capturing old times, as showcased in Master, Boogie Nights and TWBB. I think only Spielberg is better

[Noctis]

Fascinating film with absolutely amazing performances. Definitely wasn't expecting a film this good.

 

A-

[Jack Nevada]

This might actually be my favorite movie from 2012

[acsc1312]

I popped in the blu ray yesterday just to watch like 5 minutes, which turned into 30. I'm gonna finish it today.

[acsc1312]

Dat processing scene! Chills!

[Gopher]

I was planning on only watching the first five minutes as well... it turned into half of the movie. I didn't want to turn it off. 

 

I hate to do this to Holy Motors but this could take back the #1 film of 2012 spot. 

[Jack Nevada]

The processing scene, the jail freakout and PIGFUCK scene have some of the best acting I've ever seen. Astonishing performances in this movie

[acsc1312]

This has now moved into A+ territory (9.7/10) and jumped TWBB to number two in PTA's filmography for me.

[Shawn Robbins]

I need to watch this again. It was an incredibly unsettling experience in the theater, but it's hard not to respect what PTA does with a film. TWBB is easily among my all-time favorites.

Just a hunch, but my guess is that the Academy is treating Robert Elswit the same way they are Wally Pfister. Elswit won for TWBB and The Master is really an extension of that. Ditto for Pfister (after winning for Inception) and his work in TDK and Inception extending into TDKR.

 

It was a hard year for that category. Most other years, I think Elswit and Pfister both get nominated.
