Quotes:
[after Paul Thomas Anderson said he edited the trailer and designed the poster for the film Magnolia]
Himself: You know he develloped the film too. He sent it to a lab but he just didn't like the work they were doing, so he set up a lab in his bathroom and he develloped the film.
Himself: It's got that homemade look to it.
Himself: He ground the lenses that we used in this film.

Paul Thomas Anderson makes a pretty engaging lead in this documentary about the making of "Magnolia," but the director, Mark Rance wastes a lot of running time. For example, we are treated to hearing an orchestra record the score, but why are there no scenes of Anderson and Jon Brion discussing the score? There are also scenes showing pre-production meetings, but apart from discussions about difficulties in scheduling the actors, the rest could be cut in favor of more Anderson/Robert Elswit footage. I would like to see a doc about Paul Thomas Anderson in the tradition of "Directed by Andrei Tarkovsky." I can't help but feel there is a better doc in the footage not used.
