Info: PUNCH-DRUNK LOVE
TICKETS / Washington D.C. / E Street Cinema
Coming Soon
Winner of the Best Director Prize at the 2002 Cannes Film Festival, "this misfit love story of disconnected people trying to find one another in an antagonistic world is a comedy of discomfort and rage that turns unexpectedly sweet and pure" (Kenneth Turan, Los Angeles Times). Adam Sandler gives an amazing and unusual performance as Barry Egan, a socially impaired owner of a small novelty business, who is dominated by seven sisters and is unlikely to find love unless it finds him. When a mysterious woman (Emily Watson) comes into his life, his emotions go haywire, fluctuating between uncontrollable rage, lust and self-doubt. Written and directed by Paul Thomas Anderson (Licorice Pizza, Phantom Thread, There Will Be Blood, Boogie Nights), Punch-Drunk Love is a dark, lovely and unique film experience. Co-starring Luis Guzman and Philip Seymour Hoffman.
