Wissenswertes
A subplot of the film was inspired by an article in Time Magazine about David Phillips, a University of California civil engineer who stumbled upon a lucrative frequent-flyer promotion. By purchasing 12,150 cups of Healthy Choice pudding for just $3,000, he accumulated 1.25 million air-miles.

Patzer
When Barry boards the flight to Hawaii, he wears the blue suit with the red tie he wears throughout most of the film. When he is shown sitting in his seat talking to the man next to him, his tie is yellow. The next scene, showing him leaving the Hawaii Airport, he wears the red tie again.

Zitate
Barry: I don't know if there is anything wrong because I don't know how other people are.

Crazy Credits
Egan's six sisters are credited collectively as "The Sisters." The four brothers who pursue and assault him are credited collectively as "The Brothers."

Love & Pudding

The first time I saw "Punch-Drunk Love" I was a little bit disappointed, mostly because it's Paul Thomas Anderson's follow-up to "Magnolia", my favourite film ever, so I had high expectations (it also didn't help it was about 2 A.M. and I was quite sleepy and moody). I've just had a second viewing and I'm totally in love with this film. Anderson himself said he doesn't think he'll ever do anything as great as "Magnolia" again and I agree, I don't think he can get any better than his perfect work of art called "Magnolia", a truly unique film experience that has it all. Anderson reached the peak quite early in his career. That doesn't mean, though, that he can't continue making other fine films (go away, Orson Welles syndrome!), and "Punch-Drunk Love" is the 4th of them. One of the most original love stories of the decade (perhaps, ever), the story of the depressed and insecure Barry Egan (Adam Sandler, in his only real performance to date - I wish he could work with PTA again) and Lena Leonard (Emily Watson and her big, lovely blue eyes) rings true to anyone who ever fell in love and felt dizzy, goofy...and a little scared, too. "Punch-Drunk Love" succeeds wonderfully at showing us how bizarre and precious being in love is. If you liked "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind", you'll probably enjoy PDL as well.
