>Gane: "One Battle After Another is simultaneously a testament to the filmmaking talent of Paul Thomas Anderson in having successfully expressed a fraction of scope of the vision of Thomas Pynchon in a visual form, while also an indictment on film as a medium, for if a copy of a mere fraction of one of the worst novels from Pynchon is capable of being declared generational and the magnum opus of a supposed maestro, one must question what the medium (itself an amalgamation of other, more pure forms of art) provides to the world"

hard to disagree
