Magnolia

Magnolia

1999

From director Paul Thomas Anderson comes a mosaic of American life woven through a series of comedic and poignant vignettes. Through chance, human action, past history and divine intervention, an eclectic cast of characters (including Tom Cruise, Julianne Moore, William H. Macy and more) weaves and warps through each other's lives on a random San Fernando Valley day, building an unforgettable climax.

Things fall down. People look up. And when it rains, it pours.
