Rating:
Adam_Sandler and Emily_Watson star in Punch-Drunk Love, an odd romantic comedy from gifted young director Paul_Thomas_Anderson. Sandler plays Barry Egan, a shy sad-sack with a great deal of repressed anger that occasionally bursts forth in sudden violent outrages, who falls in love with Lena Leonard (Emily_Watson), a co-worker of one of Barry's seven sisters. After calling a phone-sex line, Barry is extorted by bad-guy Dean Trumbell (Anderson regular Philip_Seymour_Hoffman), who eventually sends four goons to assault Barry and get the money. This film was screened in competition at the 2002 Cannes Film Festival, where Paul_Thomas_Anderson was named Best Director. Perry Seibert, Rovi
