“When I saw [PSH] for the first time in Scent of a Woman, I just knew what true love was. I knew what love at first sight was. It was the strangest feeling sitting in a movie theater and thinking, ‘He’s for me and I’m for him.’” -Paul Thomas Anderson
Philip Seymour Hoffman in Scent of a Woman (1992), dir. Martin Brest
Cooper Hoffman in Licorice Pizza (2021), dir. Paul Thomas Anderson
I’m not a poet. I’m just a woman. And as a woman, there’s no way for me to make my own money. Not enough to earn a living, or to support my family. If I had my own money, which I don’t, that money would belong to my husband the moment we got married. If we had children, they would be his, not mine. They would be his property. So, don’t sit there and tell me that marriage isn’t an economic proposition, because it is. It may not be for you, but it most certainly is for me. FLORENCE PUGH AS AMY MARCH IN LITTLE WOMEN (2019)
