  • Post-Postmodern Cinema at the Turn of the Millennium: Paul Thomas Anderson’S Magnolia
    Revista de Estudios Norteamericanos, vol. 24, 2020. Seville, Spain, ISSN 1133-309-X, pp. 1-21. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.12795/REN.2020.i24.01 POST-POSTMODERN CINEMA AT THE TURN OF THE MILLENNIUM: PAUL THOMAS ANDERSON’S MAGNOLIA JESÚS BOLAÑO QUINTERO Universidad de Cádiz [email protected] Received: 20 May 2020 Accepted: 26 July 2020 KEYWORDS Magnolia; Paul Thomas Anderson; post-postmodern cinema; New Sincerity; French New Wave; Jean-Luc Godard; Vivre sa Vie PALABRAS CLAVE Magnolia; Paul Thomas Anderson; cine post-postmoderno; Nueva Sinceridad; Nouvelle Vague; Jean-Luc Godard; Vivir su vida ABSTRACT Starting with an analysis of the significance of the French New Wave for postmodern cinema, this essay sets out to make a study of Paul Thomas Anderson’s Magnolia (1999) as the film that marks the beginning of what could be considered a paradigm shift in American cinema at the end of the 20th century. Building from the much- debated passing of postmodernism, this study focuses on several key postmodern aspects that take a different slant in this movie. The film points out the value of aspects that had lost their meaning within the fiction typical of postmodernism—such as the absence of causality; sincere honesty as opposed to destructive irony; or the loss of faith in Lyotardian meta-narratives. We shall look at the nature of the paradigm shift to link it to the desire to overcome postmodern values through a recovery of Romantic ideas. RESUMEN Partiendo de un análisis del significado de la Nouvelle Vague para el cine postmoderno, este trabajo presenta un estudio de Magnolia (1999), de Paul Thomas Anderson, como obra sobre la que pivota lo que se podría tratar como un cambio de paradigma en el cine estadounidense de finales del siglo XX.

The festival presents 12 films representing a cross-section of important cinematic works overlooked by audiences, critics and distributors. The films are screened in the 1,500-seat Virginia Theatre, a restored movie palace built in the 1920s. A portion of the festival’s income goes toward on-going renovations at the theatre.

  • Phantom Limbs
    August 2013 PHANTOM LIMBS Set in present day rural Nebraska and the Desert Southwest, PHANTOM LIMBS is an intimate coming-of-age story and a contemporary mythology of the Great Plains as seen through the eyes of two sisters abandoned by every adult in their lives. Eleven years after their father’s mysterious death and their mother’s subsequent abandonment, serious wallflower Mabel (21), and capricious flirt Lily (18), barely subsist amidst drought and recession-ravaged farmland. Following years of raising her little sister while tending to their dying, now dead, grandmother, resourceful but haunted Mabel finds herself stuck, running an old junk shop in their decaying family home. Lily, meanwhile, flirts her way through life with her wise-cracking slacker boyfriend Jordan (19) attending her like a puppy dog. With sisterly and sexual tensions running high, the walls and weight of abandoment seem to be closing in when a brief letter arrives from the girls’ estranged and potentially dangerous mother. In spite of Mabel’s warnings, Lily and Jordan take off in a stolen car to confront the woman in the Desert Southwest. Meanwhile, without Lily to care for and obsessed with the past, Mabel desperately seeks to carve out her own identity. As the sisters extract themselves from their cocoon of co-dependency to confront how personal and regional history made them who they are, Mabel and Lily embark on separate paths riddled with emotional landmines, fragmented memory, burgeoning sexuality, and growth. Based on celebrated Nebraska author Timothy Schaffert’s novel The Phantom Limbs of the Rollow Sisters - called “Blithe, quirky, spirited and offbeat” by Janet Maslin, The New York Times, and “Boondocks-Gothic...quietly tragic” by The Washington Post - this feature film adaptation is a rich, dusty tale of self-reliance and an allegory of a generation abandoned by parents and leaders who’ve sucked America’s economies, cultures, communities, and the land itself dry.

  • Life During Wartime
    Life During Wartime By TODD MCCARTHY A Werc Werk Works production. (International sales: Fortissimo Films, Amsterdam.) Produced by Christine Kunewa Walker, Derrick Tseng. Executive producers, Elizabeth Redleaf, Mike S. Ryan. Co- producers, Ken Bailey, Andrew Peterson. Directed, written by Todd Solondz. Joy Jordan - Shirley Henderson Bill Maplewood - Ciaran Hinds Trish Maplewood - Allison Janney Harvey Weiner - Michael Lerner Billy Maplewood - Chris Marquette Mark Weiner - Rich Pecci Jacqueline - Charlotte Rampling Andy - Paul Reubens Helen Jordan - Ally Sheedy Timmy Maplewood - Dylan Riley Snyder Mona Jordan - Renee Taylor Allen - Michael Kenneth Williams Wanda - Gaby Hoffman In revisiting his darkly comic 1998 ensembler "Happiness," Todd Solondz may have made his best film with "Life During Wartime." The distinctive, boundary-pushing writer-director has had the eccentric inspiration to resurrect the same central characters a decade later, but using entirely different actors. Winning result, which reels off one riveting scene after another, stands as both a unique sort-of sequel and a film that requires no prior reference points; it's entirely satisfying either way, though even richer if you recall the antecedent. The resolutely niche filmmaker has never had a real breakout success and the confrontational nature of his latest won't change that fact, but his loyal following will be buoyed by this strong effort. A rare collection of sexual quagmires and perversions lay at the heart of "Happiness," and a most impressive aspect of the new film is how it so piercingly examines the residue and continuing ramifications of those dilemmas a decade later. Best remembered, no doubt, is the pedophile father, Dylan Baker's Bill Maplewood, a shrink and father of three kids who can't keep his mind or hands off young boys.

While it is not possible to predict how much money will be spent between now and November 2, it may be useful to compare the levels of spending in this year’s primary campaign with that of previous election cycles. In this report, “Breaking the Bank,” staff of the Fair Political Practices Commission determined the spending of each candidate in every California gubernatorial primary since 1978 and calculated the actual spending per vote cast—in 2010 dollars—as candidates sought their party’s nomination. The conclusion: over time, gubernatorial primary elections have become more costly and fewer people turnout at the polls. But that only scratches the surface of what has happened since 19781. Other highlights of the report include: Since 1998, the rise of the self-funded candidate has dramatically increased the cost of running for governor in California.
