Philip Seymour Hoffman and Luis Guzmán also appear. After the release of his previous film Magnolia (which ran over three hours long), Anderson stated that he would like to work with Adam Sandler in the future and that he was determined to make his next film 90 minutes long.[1] The film won rave reviews for Adam Sandler in his first major departure from the broader comedies that had made him a star. Roger Ebert wrote in the Chicago Sun-Times that "Sandler, liberated from the constraints of formula, reveals unexpected depths as an actor. Watching this film, you can imagine him in Dennis Hopper roles. He has darkness, obsession and power."[2] He won Best Actor at the Gijón International Film Festival and was nominated for the Golden Globe Award for Best Actor – Motion Picture Musical or Comedy, and was, at one point, a contender for the Academy Award for Best Actor, but he was not nominated. The film was produced by Revolution Studios and New Line Cinema, and distributed by Columbia Pictures; it features the video artwork of Jeremy Blake in the form of visual interludes.
