Paul Thomas Anderson has a way of telling stories that feel both vast and deeply personal. His films explore the messy, fascinating corners of American life, grappling with themes like obsession, ambition, loneliness, and identity—always with a sharp eye and deep empathy for his flawed characters. This retrospective features five standout films, in anticipation of his new film ¨One Battle After Another¨, each a key moment in Anderson’s career:

There Will Be Blood – A gripping story of greed and power in the American West. Winner of two Academy Awards, including Best Actor for Daniel Day-Lewis.

Magnolia – A sweeping ensemble drama about chance, connection, and emotional reckoning. Nominated for three Academy Awards.

Punch-Drunk Love – A strange and tender romance that revealed a new dramatic side of Adam Sandler. Earned Anderson the Best Director award at Cannes.

Phantom Thread – A darkly elegant love story set in the world of haute couture. Nominated for six Oscars, including Best Picture, and winner for Best Costume Design.

Inherent Vice – A hazy, comic mystery soaked in ’70s California paranoia. Nominated for two Academy Awards, including Best Adapted Screenplay.

With longtime collaborators like Daniel Day-Lewis, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Joaquin Phoenix, Jonny Greenwood, and Robert Elswit, Anderson’s films are made to be experienced on the big screen. Don't miss it!
