"One Battle After Another" finds director Paul Thomas Anderson in peerless form, turning in a (very) loose adaptation of Thomas Pynchon's 1990 novel Vineland. Leonardo DiCaprio stars as Bob Ferguson, a washed-up former revolutionary who has abandoned the cause to bring up his daughter, Willa (Chase Infiniti). When the corrupt Colonel Lockjaw (a scenery-chewing Sean Penn) tracks them down, however, Bob finds himself pulled back into the fight.Beautifully staged, fist-gnawingly tense, and often uproariously funny, Anderson has added another masterpiece to his stacked resume. "One Battle After Another" was the big winner at this year's Academy Awards, picking up six Oscars, including the Best Picture award. Once you've seen the film's astonishing final chase sequence, you'll fully understand why.Stream "One Battle After Another" on Prime Video now'Gosford Park' (2018)
