lancaster dodd is just tyler durden for people who know how to read

This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.

Oh jeez, that was something.

Uhhh, I don't know, nothing I say can really properly describe how beautiful I thought this film was. Beautiful in it's writing, performances, and obviously cinematography. I am seriously amazed a story like this was told so well and in such a fascinating way. Going to be thinking about this one for awhile.

Joaquin Phoenix fucks a sand-hole and gets kicked out of Sears.

The story of a man who claims he can erase the trauma suffered in past lives, who cannot even help his most fervent follower deal with the trauma he has experienced in this life. And also a love story, after a fashion.

"If you leave me now, in the next life you will be my sworn enemy. And I will show you no mercy."

I really miss Phillip Seymour Hoffman.

I really was a huge idiot for thinking this wasn't one of the greatest films ever made huh?

Five years ago I tweeted the following: "I think the movie scene I relate to most is in The Master when Joaquin Phoenix hurls a meatball at a guy trying to make a valid point"

This has not changed

So incredibly *funny* and ~tender~. Maybe one of my favorites! 

At the very least, if the A.F.I. was the G.A.B.E., “pig fuck!” would be #7 on the top 100 movie quotes of all time

folks, this movie is NOT for the weak. you have to do your homework and know the background before you go into it, but if you do you’re gonna be so glad you did. over the years i’ve become quite fascinated with scientology and post-war trauma and thats exactly what the master is about. i thought it did justice to both topics. and underneath that you have the complicated, torrid relationship between freddie and the titular master and you’ve got a winner. i know a lot of people think pta’s best is there will be blood, but i think it’s the upgraded version. it’s the  step above.

shoutout to amy adams’ 4th oscar lost has got to be one of my favorite genders

i think this film is beautiful and i like how a lot of people talk about it and watching it, much like Magnolia, felt like a breeze. i can’t fully grasp what it is and what it means but i appreciate a lot of its subtexts. i don’t know how i feel about Phoenix in this tbh but god i love Philip i love him so much, what a talent and what a soul

pta really made a non-daniel day-lewis film starring a guy who looks exactly like daniel day-lewis

First of all, I deeply miss Philip Seymour Hoffman. 

If you figure out a way to live without a master, any master, be sure to let the rest of us know, for you would be the first in the history of the world ~ Lancaster Dodd 

The dynamic between Freddie & Lancaster was completely strange & mesmerizing but this movie just left me feeling like I was on a slow boat to China.

No clue what I just watched. Can't say I really liked it but I wasn't super bored either, it feels like a weird experience. Maybe that's what it's supposed to feel like.

The film itself felt very long at some times but maybe that's also due to the fact that I paused it a couple times to take a mini break which turned into me doing something else for 15 minutes.

The acting was great, I am very confused but getting major queer vibes from Lancaster and Freddie. Very suiting to pride month, so that's a good thing!

Happy Pride to Freddie and Lancaster!

The cinematography and performances will leave you in awe. The type of movie that you can’t just watch once. Amazing!

really really loved this but once i got to the ending, i felt as though i hadn’t been paying attention to the right subtext, as i was so transfixed with the mythology of the cult itself. then i watched some videos on youtube that made me realize im a sorry excuse for a psychology major and i definitely wasn’t paying attention to the right subtext. regardless! masterclass in so many ways. wish i could give PSH a hug.

These performances>>>>>

Oh and PTA is on another level

The master es una película que no cumplió mis expectativas pero creo que fue mi culpa por comenzar la filmografia de Paul thomas anderson con la última película que sacó , sería algo así como empezar con Nolan viendo Tenet. la voy a poner en mi lista de volver a ver porque no creo que sea mala pero si compleja y laberintica.

Me sacó el sombrero ante Joaquín Phoenix por su actuación magistral de un personaje súper complejo y con múltiples padecimientos. La película está plagada de buenos planos y escenas bien actuadas pero no me gusta su método de narración no lineal.

I miss Philip Seymour Hoffman.
