Paul Thomas Anderson’s comedy action-thriller One Battle After Another dominated last night’s 98th Academy Awards winning six Oscars, including the coveted statuette for Best Picture.
Dubbed a “ferocious masterpiece” by The Independent’s critic, Clarisse Loughrey, the epic counterculture film follows Bob, played by Leonardo DiCaprio – a washed-up member of the revolutionary group, known as the French 75, who is living off-grid with his spirited daughter Willa, played by Chase Infiniti. When an enemy resurfaces (in the face of a corrupt military officer Sean Penn as Col. Steven J. Lockjaw) after 16 years and Willa goes missing, a group of ex-revolutionaries reunite to rescue her in the process, forcing Bob to confront his past.
