To me, that car crash scene seems to represent Lena's arrival into Barry's life. It's sudden, messes everything up, but like the piano that appears soon after the crash, she becomes his source of comfort.
Its not only lenas arrival but the crazyness of life thats gonna come his way and the color intro after that has the whole soundtrack of the movie summed up just amazing
I dunno, his life was obviously not going well before Lena's arrival. Might be a bit strong to characterise her arrival as the car crash. It seems to much more exemplify Barry's anxiety and resulting explosive rage. Throughout the film, he gets in his own way and the car crash is also due to the driver losing control suddenly and violently. I agree much more with the piano's arrival as representing Lena. It isn't his and he didn't ask for a strange piano, but it is something he indeed likes and wants. To tie the final dynamic together, he rescues it from the oncoming truck at the last moment. This is parallel to his trouble with the phone-sex operation: both can be seen coming a long way off, and Barry waits to the last possible moment to take action.
Alexander Medina the score just speaks volumes I this movie. When Barry is feeling stressed out, the movie creates this avant-garde chaotic music, but whenever he’s around Lena, there’s this soft peaceful music. Really great score.
This is were most romantic movies go wrong: two beautiful, successful, witty characters fall in love... great This is were punch drunk love goes right: an endearing but emotionally challenged loser with no confidence falls in love with a beautiful, gentle, nurturing woman, and is inspired by her to conquer his own demons and fight back against the world... such a gorgeous little story.
Even if he survived the dope back when he passed, the fentanyl raining from the sky due to Biden's border policies and weakness/traitorous activities with China who is manufacturing and sending it over to kill military aged men would've CERTAINLY got his junkie ass by now. BIDEN IS THE WORST TRAITOR IN AMERICAN HISTORY. HIM AND HIS SON SHOULD BE DRAGGED THRU THE STREETS LIKE GADALFI - (GOT THAT FBI? COME GET ME U PUNKS)
I view the color collages/transitions as a look into the mind of Barry. At one moment, it's calm. The next, it's chaotic. When new colors are introduced, it throws the art into disarray. Just when the art is at its most imbalanced, it finds peace...and it's at peace when he flies to Utah to confront the Mattress Man, knowing that for once in his life, he's doing something with righteous purpose. It's beautiful!
Despite the film being so small scale, I think it’s cones the closest to have almost every frame a painting. Never has the 99 cent store looked so beautiful. You hit the nail on the head, easily my favorite PTA film.
I fucking love this movie. Not only because it's undeniably a great film (and probably PTA's greatest's), but because this movie affects me on a personal level. I think I have never relate to a character so much as in another movie or TV series (except for Bojack Horseman, kind of). I don't have sisters but my life in high school sucked and was like that, and I felt the same Barry felt in his life. Sorry if my english is bad.

Someone should do a video about the similarities between Barry and Bojack. Quite similar characters
@ I don't really see the similarities. Bojack is a pretty shitty person as the show goes great lengths to show. And he's responsible for his own actions. (Bojack is one of my favorite shows btw)
I don't understand how PTA can make every frame of his films so important. Like, everything matters and while that is what every filmmaker tries to do, PTA does it on a level nobody has ever come close to except maybe Kubrick. Every word of dialogue, piece of clothing, piece of set design, camera position, camera move, piece of lighting. It just all has a purpose beyond making the film interesting and it's amazing.
this movie shows a perfect graphic representation of what it's like to be lonely, vulnerable, stressed, misunderstood, hopeless, i mean the scenes where so many things are happening at once and the chaotic music of the background and everything falling apart, i saw that as our anxiety, as how our mind can be so loud and create a chaos over things that probably aren't that chaotic, also barry's sister asking him so many things at once, why are you doing this, why are you doing that, and his other sisters mocking how barry says things, as audience you feel barry's stress and you can fully relate on it, this movie shows off how love is the most powerful thing of it all as cheesy as that sounds, barry was vulnerable, awkward and all over the place but he fell in love and became almost fearless, standing up for himself, strong, happy, it's really a rollercoaster, a beautiful one, not to forget the details in the bg of almost every shot and how there is always red and blue together, could be coincidential or not but i loved that lil concept, anyways i agree with you completely, this movie is in all means amazing and super unique, it's def one of my favorites right now out of every single one i've seen.
Karsten get going already on Netflix’s “maniac” with Jonah Hill and Emma Stone. Its s great 10 episode series with very visually and deep storytelling!
I absolutely love this film. nearly every aspect of it is just brilliant to me (the soundtrack, the Cinematography, THE ACTING) . I relate to Sandler's character in major ways, Barry's relationship with Lena feels so real to me, the film isn't exactly visually realistic, but its exquisite and draws me in so completely every time I watch it and makes me want so desperately to find a love of my own wow (Also I love your channel)
I would like to highlight that the multiple sisters are actually almost all related to each other. I think it's two sets of sisters from two different families and then Mary Rajskub as the one sister who is an actual actress. The blond boys that beat up Barry are also siblings. Good call on the details. I love this movie, I've analyzed and overanalyzed it to death and I still love it. The ties are something I never picked up on, so good for addressing it. My favorite take on the movie is that the whole film is an arthouse Adam Sandler film, and if you watch it carefully, it is. It has all the hallmarks of a Happy Madison production.
I like the detail that the girl Barry calls is belittled by her brothers, just like Barry. Idk what that says about Barry as a character but it does add extra texture to characters that didn't necessarily need it, but it makes all the difference.
i'll admit i was quite a bit skeptical, seeing adam sandler starring in this movie, but i can safely say that you've eradicated that skepticism and i'll be seeing this asap now :]
Karsten, I Love that you did a Love letter to this film. When I saw it in the cinema when it first came out, I was shaken by it. Still love it a huge bunch!!
i felt quite different about this film, especially in that Lena and Barry's love felt so rushed like they barely knew each other and arguably had ok to poor chemistry, this is what really made the film lesser for me, i feel like if they had just a little more scenes that displayed why the characters love each other it would have been far more believable. other than that i really enjoyed the film
something a spoiler so if you haven't watched don't read this I love how you can clearly see the main girl following him in the grocery store scene after they first meet. with each viewing she changes as a person, on a first viewing you see her sort of falling in love with him, but on later viewers it's shown that she is just as weird as he is and that they are sort of a perfect couple because of that. this is my least favorite pta film but it is still a good movie, I think it is some what over praised by people, wanting to seem smarter for saying that his least popular film is their favorite. the film is 100% worth a watch though and if you haven't seen it in a while watch it again you will pick up on some new things
This might be my favorite PTA film, but man is tough putti net above boogie nights, there will be blood, and phantom thread, still need to watch the master tho
Karsten! I don't know if you'll see this but you should give Blindspotting a watch. I think you would really appreciate it and I would love for it to get some more attention!
I have some thoughts on the car accident scene. Maybe it's a spoiler of the movie. Maybe it's telling us not to be afraid of love, even if it seems scary as a car accident, and we can actually appreciate it like we do with music (harmonium)?
Not Karsten but have sent to much time in a way thinking about this section 80 - haven't listened to this album that much but I think the album doesn't deal with god that much but I think it shows his religious ideals. There is a strong moral compass to the album, he deals with themes of violence, drugs and sex and sees them as morally wrong in the eye of god yet he does them because he likes them. yet he still sees the importance of trying to better yourself good kid maad city - the album beginnings with Kendrick and his friends asking for forgiveness to god. the album tells the story of a young kid named Kdot, he is in love with this girl from another town. His mom doesn't like him going to see her cause the town she lives is not safe, she also doesn't like kdots friends for similar reasons. Kdot takes his mom's car he says for just a little bit to go get his dad pizza but really he goes to see his girlfriend and then his friends. the rest of the album explores themes of theft, love/ familial/sexual, relations between african americans and cops, violence, and murder. Kendrick/kdot likes hanging out with his friends even if they are breaking the law. He knows that what he is doing is wrong, yet he sees this as the only way his friends can do to make money and survive. The album ends with a young boy dying due to gang violence. Kdot promises that he will sing about this day when he is successful. Kendrick sees god as the only way you can live in this world. He sees violence everywhere and many people can't make a living without committing sins because of this you need god to make you try and better yourself and gain forgiveness for doing things you know are wrong. to pimp a butterfly - this album deals more with Kendrick becoming a celebrity, his new duties to the city he was born in, dealing with his celebrity and trying not to be taken advantage of by people who know this new reality more than he does. God plays a role in this album in a more moral sense rather than a more literal sense. damn - this is the most god heavy album. Kendrick at this point sees the troubles of black people around the world coming their community in a whole sin so much so this is how god is punishing them. Kendrick is dealing with this idea the whole album. The album shows sin and the problem it leads to him having to deal with. at the end of the album he reflects on a story about his dad. He believes that the only way that you have to stop sinning to be able to live a better life, that living a better life and helping others/ your community god will favor you and you will reap the awards of a good life from god. hopefully this is helpful, it would be cool to see a video going more in depth though
i still remember the first time i saw this movie in college and immediately fell in love. immediately watched every film of his right after that and he's safely my favorite director of all time
Awesome review, one mistake though. At 2:47 you talk about a specific sequence near the beginning of the film, but it is actually at the end of the film. There are no opening credits or titles, everything is at the end. The film opens straight with the desk scene. Anyway, keep up the great job :))
Snezhana Boyadzhieva The sequence happens right after Barry says “I don’t know” when asked about the harmonium, so about 7 minutes in or so. There are no credits over the images
I disagree that Punch Drunk love isn't a coming of age story. It is very much a coming of age story. Just a coming of age story where the kid who comes of age is in his mid 30s XD ... I'm sure thats why PTA cast Adam Sandler: because of his brilliance at playing grown up children. Furthermore: Grown up children are at the centre of all PTA's writing.. even the trivia kid in Magnolia is a "grown up child".
Especially what you said in the end, about this film bringing together all aspect of filmmaking, really hits me! Don’t forget about the awesome sound track! (Can I call it a sound ‘track’?)

Wow this Adam Sandler guy looks like a good actor. I'm sure everything else he has done is equally as good!

lmao hell fucking no

I know you wrote this before uncut gems came out, but this didn't age well. Funny people, reign over me, dude can act I just wish he did it more lmao
Yeah, it is.

Beautiful,gentle,nurturing,and obsessive woman*
They are flawed but also loving in their own ways, and they dont look like dolled up movie stars either. They just feel like real people

his two best movies

i watched Punch Drunk after your suggestion and it was banging, the music and the rhythm was done really well
That intro got me dead
Karsten made a 10 minute video and didn’t put mid-roll ads in
what a lad
Dude the score for the film is insane I love it
Karsten grew up with punch-drunk love
Great underrated movie... this and Wedding Singer are my fave Adam Sandler movies, both romantic comedies, but on polar opposite ends of delivery
i'll admit i was quite a bit skeptical, seeing adam sandler starring in this movie, but i can safely say that you've eradicated that skepticism and i'll be seeing this asap now :]
quincington binch Adam Sandler is a great dramatic actor.
Karsten, I Love that you did a Love letter to this film. When I saw it in the cinema when it first came out, I was shaken by it. Still love it a huge bunch!!

Matt Miller just watched it a minute ago and I can safely say this is an accurate statement
I think The Master is definitely his best film
Wait, you like Inherent Vice more?
Sam Anderson The Master is amazing but both Magnolia and There Will be Blood in my opinion
This might be my favorite PTA film, but man is tough putti net above boogie nights, there will be blood, and phantom thread, still need to watch the master tho

Just finished this movie. So amazing. Phenomenal analysis dude
Fantastic review of my favorite movie! You just earned yourself a new subscriber!
This is my third favorite film of all time
Amazing video, my favourite film, thanks for making this. Sums up exactly how I feel
movie still holds up
Barry's sisters were played by non-actors who were ACTUALLY related, except for Mary Lynn Rajskub.
sorry if someone already explained that
To quote Sandler from Uncut Gems... "I disagree"
Karsten - you rock!
Yes yes yes!!! Thank you for the amazing video on this incredible film
That intro is fantastic
My favourite film of all time after your recommendation so I must thank you very much for introducing me to this masterpiece
c'mon Barry, why couldn't you have just had NordVPN?!?!
Karsten "I'm a famous TH-camr" Runquist
Where is your merch at? I can't find it anywhere lol.
The intro was awesome! Great video, now I gotta see this film.
I've finished the second rewatch for this film and l'm fascinated about this masterpiece , your review is amazing man thanks ❤️
your voice is the most soothing thing
I just watched this for the first time, and holy shit, that was so fucking incredible.
Karsten just wanted to buy a Mattress, the poor kid...
Have you seen Reign Over Me? Another great acting role for Mr Sandler
I’ll try here. I can safely say I agree wholeheartedly.
just watched this way better than portrait of a lady on fire
Why have I never heard of this movie before? Damn it
That Intro Is Funny As Hell
Do an essay on phantom thread
This is your best video

Damn that smooth sponsor slide in tho
yay, i’m glad i just discovered your channel :)
I'm glad I'm not the only one
Brilliant video about a Brilliant film 🎥 👏
Loved your intro! 🤣

Yeah great review by the way
I had a cameo at the airport in Hawaii! Wow and I’m the 200th comment as well
The first minute and I already had to like the video. Love it!
If you like the color schematics and film style of this movie you might like "Comet" by Justin Long, ft. Emily Rossum. That's my favorite romance :)
What are your thoughts on Joaquin Phoenix with his older movies and his newer ones?

Could you do an analysis on Kendrick Lamar’s albums and his relationship with god possibly?
Not Karsten but have sent to much time in a way thinking about this
section 80 - haven't listened to this album that much but I think the album doesn't deal with god that much but I think it shows his religious ideals. There is a strong moral compass to the album, he deals with themes of violence, drugs and sex and sees them as morally wrong in the eye of god yet he does them because he likes them. yet he still sees the importance of trying to better yourself

I really wanted to like this film but I just couldn't connect to it. Worst PTA imo but that doesn't mean it's bad.
Yes!!! I’m so happy that I can watch this now!!!
Man I have dreams of being in a paul Thomas Anderson movie one day
I disagree that Punch Drunk love isn't a coming of age story. It is very much a coming of age story. Just a coming of age story where the kid who comes of age is in his mid 30s XD ...

Furthermore: Grown up children are at the centre of all PTA's writing.. even the trivia kid in Magnolia is a "grown up child".
