Over 24 hours in the San Fernando Valley, a dying father, a young wife, a male caretaker, a famous lost son, a police officer in love, a boy genius, an ex-boy genius, a game show host and an estranged daughter will each become part of a dazzling multiplicity of plots, but one story. Featuring a star-studded ensemble that includes Tom Cruise, Julianne Moore, Phillip Seymour Hoffman, Phillip Baker Hall, William H. Macy and John C. Reilly, Magnolia offers a bold and empathetic look at the strange connections that bind us together. kitchener

"Magnolia is operatic in its ambition, a great, joyous leap into melodrama and coincidence, with ragged emotions, crimes and punishments, deathbed scenes, romantic dreams, generational turmoil and celestial intervention, all scored to insistent music." - Roger Ebert
"With Magnolia, Paul Thomas Anderson establishes himself as one of the most exciting and distinctive directors around." - The Guardian
"An impressive piece of work with some fine acting that makes holding our interest for three-plus hours seem easy." - Los Angeles Times
