my current list might be

1. Inherent Vice
2. The Master
3. Boogie Nights
4. There Will Be Blood
5. Punch-Drunk Love
6. Magnolia
7. Phantom Thread
8. Licorice Pizza
9. Hard Eight

first 7 shuffle around a lot tho, kind of very dependent on mood and how long ago I rewatched each lol.

IV is my fav atm just cause I find myself going back to it the most for the atmosphere, music and gorgeous look. it's the Tarantino definition of a perfect hang out movie, so many fun characters and scenes, but it has the same serious melancholic undercurrent that I love in Master. also just think it's a perfect adaptation loving Pynchon

Suicide postponed

Shasta playing with her nipples is a top 3 PTA scene
From when she shows back up through them walking on the beach. She’s talking about being on a ship and getting ran through by a bunch of creepy, powerful men, and it’s the most beautiful mixture of hot, and disturbing, and melancholy. Shasta is Inherent Vice. Someone who has a natural tendency to self-destruct, but that just makes you want her more…

1. Boogie Nights
2. The Master
3. Punch Drunk Love

Everyone who has posted lists has the master within their top 2

2. The Master
3. Punch Drunk Love
4. Boogie Nights
5. Magnolia

Have not seen Hard Eight yet

It’s a testament how goated he is that any other director id write off the movie completely but since it’s PTA it’s a 7/10

I got to rewatch the master again bcause it did not connect with me the way it did most other people. I was also 14 when i saw it so maybe thats why

Punch Drunk Love

the only one ive seen

The Master
There Will Be Blood
Inherent Vice
Punch Drunk Love
Boogie Nights
Licorice Pizza
Phantom Thread
Hard Eight

I really enjoy Hard Eight, feels a little unfair it being that low but naturally sorta has to be. Have only seen Magnolia once forever ago, could well be higher. Also, Inherent Vice could really be 1.

Wood Harris yo

As challenging, unique and complex as they said - but it’s surprisingly littered with some of the most beautiful descriptions of love and affection. I’m currently halfway through it.

It’s basically everything that’s already itt but seeing it in a big official outlet makes this distant mysterious movie feel a bit more imminent and real
