Magnolia - 9/10


the score could rise or fall after a second or third viewing but likely it would rise. ill be brief since there is a depth here that a single viewing cant grasp.

what i will say is this structurally is a stunning achievement in writing. there are multiple scenes that play congurently that have an outlandish divide in stakes but dont feel like they have any divide at all. im not sure ive ever seen anything crafted this way tonally and if i have it certainly wasn't as successful at it. i have a lot of thoughts but theyre all half formed so ill stop here but it was very very good.
