Episode 40 - Magnolia Part 1 - The Difficult Gifts of Paul Thomas Anderson (Switcheroo)

<p>This week, we switcheroo and Josh takes the reigns of the film discussion as we discuss Paul Thomas Anderson&apos;s 1999 Magnolia.<br/><br/>The discussion of this three hour epic is split into two parts. In this first part, Mattie and Josh reckon with the difficulty of enjoying brilliant works of art from morally questionable people. They explore how the art reflects on its creators, rather than how the creators actions condemn the art.<br/><br/>Frogs and Haim come up a lot as well.<br/><br/>Behind The Scenes clips mentioned in the episode: <br/><br/>Fiona Apple Pretending to be Magnolia: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MVt2oYUu5jQ<br/>Testing the Frogs: https://youtu.be/-sG40zsq3kI?t=248<br/>Actors Commenting on the Magnolia Script: https://youtu.be/-sG40zsq3kI?t=3011<br/>Paul Thomas Anderson interacting with Philip Seymour Hoffman on the set : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TjlyYnJvPC8&amp;t=2s <br/><br/>Social media links for updates on new episodes:<br/>Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/minority_arts_podcast_/<br/>Twitter:https://twitter.com/ArtsMinority<br/><br/>Download Links:<br/>Buzzsprout: https://www.buzzsprout.com/897868/episodes<br/>Spotify:https://open.spotify.com/show/60BYiYNMpAd8KLgVOL9MuS<br/>Google Podcast: https://podcasts.google.com/?feed=aHR0cHM6Ly9mZWVkcy5idXp6c3Byb3V0LmNvbS84OTc4NjgucnNz&amp;ved=0CAAQ4aUDahcKEwiwrY3I3ZzpAhUAAAAAHQAAAAAQAg<br/><br/>Intro Music: Josh, Guitar, Thing by Fenn Waterston<br/>Outro Music: Interlude 21 by Fenn Waterston</p>
