I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

This was my 3rd watch and I still loved it. Honestly I could watch Phoenix in just about anything.

I watched Magnolia for the first time a few weeks ago and it triggered a full PTA rewatch. So far I've done The Master - which I liked a lot more this time around, Licorice Pizza - which I still think is my favorite, but I need to rewatch Magnolia to be sure. It has one of my favorite ever soundtracks, and now Inherent Vice - which I've always really enjoyed. I can see why some people don't like it, but I love the way it meanders.

I was looking for something light hearted last night because I wasn't feeling great and I found it in Maverick - 1994.

It's free on YouTube and it was a perfectly silly 90s action comedy. Great cast, too.
