Punch-Drunk Love
- Commentary: Under construction.
Update 8/2/21: Although I haven't "officially" written-up this movie, yet, out of curiosity, I looked it up on Roger Ebert's site and discovered, wow! He wrote about the movie (see the link in the title of this post), Adam Sandler and its director. He enjoyed this movie so much, for a variety of reasons, he wrote about it in innumerable catch-all "recommended movie" posts. Finally, although Roger is no longer with us, his site, mid-2018, published "an excerpt" (quite a lengthy excerpt) of an interestingly ambivalent essay by Ethan Warren published in Bright Wall/Dark Room. I'm including links to both the "excerpt" and the entire article because Bright Wall/Dark Room has a pay-wall that allows several free access visits but I'm not sure how many one gets before one is denied access without a subscription.
