aul Thomas Anderson was born June 26, 1970, in the San Fernando Valley of Los Angeles, California. He would go on to set many of his films in the valley. He is one of nine children, and his father, Ernie, was an actor who read announcements for ABC and was the host of the Cleveland edition of Shock Theater. Anderson made short films from a young age, most notably The Dirk Diggler Story, which
would eventually serve as the basis for Anderson’s breakout hit Boogie Nights (1997). Anderson briefly attended several colleges but dropped out of all of them after a short period. After leaving NYU’s film program after only two days, Anderson made a short film called Cigarettes and Coffee with the money he had intended to spend on his tuition. The film garnered significant attention at the 1993 Sundance Film Festival, eventually paving the way for him to make his feature debut, Hard Eight (1996). The next year, he released Boogie Nights, launching his career in earnest and earning him an Academy Award nomination for Best Original Screenplay (he would go on to be nominated for the award again two years later for Magnolia and for Adapted Screenplay for both There Will Be Blood (2007) and Inherent Vice (2014). He followed Boogie Nights with Magnolia (1999), Adam Sandler collaboration Punch-Drunk Love (2002), There Will Be Blood (2007), The Master (2012), Inherent Vice, and most recently Phantom Thread (2017). Each film has received significant critical acclaim, and Anderson has twice been nominated for the Academy Award for Best Director (for There Will Be Blood and Phantom Thread). Anderson has not publicly discussed his next project, but it is rumored to be a historical work on the Little Harlem community of 1940s Los Angeles, made in collaboration with comedian Tiffany Haddish. Anderson is in a long-term relationship with comedian Maya Rudolph. They have four children.

BOOGIE NIGHTS 1997
Reminiscent of Martin Scorsese’s epic masterpieces, the film is a decadent ode to the Golden Age of Porn. It solidified PTA’s career as a masterful filmmaker in all aspects, and subsequently revived Burt Reynolds’ AND Mark Wahlberg’s careers in one fell swoop.
INHERENT VICE 2014
Released in early 2015, Inherent Vice is the first - and perhaps will be the last - adaptation of a Thomas Pynchon novel. It’s been said that no Pynchon novel could possibly be adapted for film. However, there could only be one director that could make it work – this is precisely because PTA understands the southern California, drugdazed, philosophically enigmatic world in which Pynchon inhabits. Seen through the (stoned) eyes of private detective Doc Sportello (Joaquin Phoenix), the film is wry, witty, preposterous and extremely entertaining.

THE MASTER 2012
Originally created as a short film titled “Cigarettes & Coffee” during the Sundance Institute Filmmaker Lab, it was later turned into a fullfledged feature. Anderson’s original Director’s Cut was screened at the 1996 Cannes Film Festival to critical acclaim. However his battle with the studios caused a delay in the film’s release, so Anderson funded its distribution the following year with his own money – his
THERE WILL BE BLOOD 2007
Written after the death of his father, this exceedingly long film (even Anderson acknowledged it might have run far too long) is a heavy-hearted, elegiac masterpiece that reflects on the universal ideas of coincidence and redemption. Clearly influenced by film legend Robert Altman’s work, Magnolia is an overly sentimental and emotional film, but for fans of PTA this is precisely what makes it so sincere.
PUNCH DRUNK LOVE 2002
A psychologically troubled novelty supplier is nudged towards a romance with an English woman, all the while being extorted by a phone-sex line run by a crooked mattress salesman, and purchasing stunning amounts of pudding.

Troubled characters, chaotic storylines, beautiful settings and cinemotagraphy all influenced the thought process of our film festival. After several title exploration sundamaged seemed to represent the irony between the bright settings P.T. Anderson captures vs. the "damaged" character's behavior development. Our title led to subtitle explorations that relate to our guiding narrative:
