This article contains spoilers for "one battle after the other".

Paul Thomas Anderson's "one battle after another", while loosely adjusted from Thomas Pinhon's "Vineland", weaves It's a fierce political mourning Within a decade -long story of a father who realizes that he is no longer just a young man. This certainly refers to Anderson in some respects, because his latest body at work shows a clear evolution of 27-year-old who made "boogie nights". There is a thread between PTA and Leonardo DiCaprio, with former complusors now embodying roles as mentor figures.

"One battle after another" is a movie for a girl's father through and through. In the case of Bob Ferguson (DiCaprio), a former revolutionary group ammunition expert known as French 75, that means making a better world for his spiritual daughter Villa (Performance to Making Starwells by Chase Infiniti). "One battle after another" not only sees the award -winning actor at the Academy relies on the incessant dramatic performance, but also gives a way to one of his funniest.

DiCaprio is not very known as a comical actor, but when he turns it on, it often leads to some of the biggest laughter I've had in the cinema. His turns to Martin Scorsese's Wolf of Wall Street and "Once, in Hollywood" by Martin Scorsese, see an actor who seems to have overcome the art of playing characters who are revealed through their frustrations. There are very quietly funny panties in "one battle after another", such as when Bob attends a conference on parents at Villa school and makes the teacher visibly uncomfortable by recognizing Wallids decorated US presidents who were notorious slave owners.

The center of the comedy of "one battle after the other", however, features DiCaprio doing what makes it best: to crash over the phone.

After Member of the Christmas Adventurists Club - and owner of skiing dynamite dolphin - Colonel Steven J. Lokjav (John Penn) He raids his home, Bob manages to pay off the local market to call the French 75th line. It starts sufficiently predictable with a voice, later confirmed as a friend of Oshosh (Dan Hariton), pampering a few cryptic questions that have a lot Specific answers. Although Bob gets the first few rights, he freezes in place, after having to remember the correct answer to "what time it is". This scene continues to become funny with every plea to leave that sliding code, only for Comrade Oshoshos to continue asking in any case. Bless PTA to turn this joke into a full wrapped.

When Bob again calls the phone line to Sensei (Benecio del Toro) Finally blamed his phone, he's funny faced with True the same question. DiCaprio channel his inner Rick Dalton here, as he Winces, cry and shout For the location of the randen point. "I'm a drug and alcohol lubator and I can't remember, the life of me or my child's life, the answer to your question," Bob said. The pitch is when Comrade Oshosh later punished him with "Maybe you should have studied the text for the rebellion a little harder" as a teacher to talk to a student who did not study the test.

DiCaprio's comedic chops, when used by a director who knows how to use it, leads to the type of collective tires that have almost drowned the next scene. I was pretty much hugging my laughter with the resolution of this whole conversation, especially when it reminded me of Another masterpiece of PTA.

Imposing to the end of his tied, Bob becomes a revolutionary Karen, who vigorously demands that his friend get his superior. Although it was presented under many different circumstances, I could not help, but I remind you of the heated phone, which paired in "Punch with Drinks". There is a critical moment when Adam Sandler's Barry Egan calls a sexual line of forced phone that abuses and Angered he is looking to talk to the receptionist's supervisor. It just happens to be Philip Seymour Hoffman as a slig mattress man antagonizes Egan's identity. "How do I know? You can be someone," he says.

Unlike Barry and the man's mattress, who personally come to each other, the telephone deadlock of "one battle after another" ends on the perfect line. Even revolutionaries seem to have their own two -factor authentication in the mask of an alternative issue that made me cover up. Bob may not know "what time it is", but he certainly knows what is a favorite vagina's vagina ("Mexican without fiber"). Relief in Bob's voice, after he finally receives the information he needs illustrates how perfect DiCaprio is in this role. He manages to capture the dramatic multitude of a father who will not allow Marian, nor his confusion with the pronouns, prevent him from completing his final mission. It is simply funny that the character who could make bombs and avoid a white military convoy led by the overallist will almost fall apart by a phone call.

"One battle after another" now plays in cinemas around the world.
