Struggling with erratic anger issues, novelty toiletry salesman Barry Egan (Adam Sandler) spends his days collecting frequent-flyer-mile coupons and dodging the insults of his seven sisters. When Barry inadvertently attracts the affection of a mysterious woman named Lena (Emily Watson), he begins to see a better life for himself. But their budding relationship is threatened by a phone sex company and its deranged boss (played with maniacal brio by Philip Seymour Hoffman).
Fueled by the careening momentum of a baroque-futurist score by Jon Brion and Robert Estwit’s propulsive camerawork, Paul Thomas Anderson’s unique answer to the rom-com is a wild and idiosyncratic ode to the delirium of love.
