Your Vice review/crit/write up makes me think you forgot how much you loved The Master at the time. It's a good thing these thoughts are archived and available for revisiting. This is still a great write up! The Master is still a great movie! So is Inherent Vice! So is Boogie Nights, which kind of could be a sequel to Inherent Vice, but not, but maybe, but not, but could. The Iron John write up here also brought to mind Whiplash. That is a movie to be unpacked and rolled instead of folded and checked through the mind's Customs Agent sometime soon. Such a simple little movie about getting your shit handed back to you. I sense a theme these days. Show Business is all business and all business is show business. johnnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11799326880962880585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30487573.post-84036525470364014262012-09-28T17:47:15.254-05:002012-09-28T17:47:15.254-05:00You are fucking awesome. I've been reading eve...You are fucking awesome. I've been reading everything on The Master and you are the first and only writer to pair it up with Performance, which I think is genius. This is why I consider you one of the best film writers working right now.

To be continued, indeed. ...What a great write up! To be continued, indeed. I saw this movie on Saturday and haven't gone an hour without something from it smacking me on the back of the head. I feel like the world finally got an actor to not only fill Steve McQueen's shoes, but to walk in them from where his journey ended into the next trail and beyond. I was surprised when "I'm Still Here" was met with such "indifference" - I thought it was hilarious and Herculean - and I see it as a great lead in to The Master. I haven't been so taken with a movie since I can remember. Id, meet Ego... Ego, Id. Try and rub off on each other.
