To mark the opening of P.T. Anderson’s Inherent Vice, we’re going to read Thomas Pynchon
Oops, put the wrong video earlier.
But not Inherent Vice, The Crying of Lot 49. It’s short.
And sorry if you got all excited, we don’t know whether Inherent Vice will open in Philippine theatres at all.
Maybe Pynchon has a cameo in Inherent Vice. They can claim he’s in it, after all no one knows what he looks like.
Last week we had our annual viewing of Magnolia. One way to look at Magnolia is to see it as a musical by Aimee Mann and P.T. Anderson. There’s even group singing with Tom Cruise.
It’s P.T.A. Week at Grantland.
