ONE BATTLE AFTER ANOTHER @ Liberty Theatre

Rated R. One Battle After Another follows a former revolutionary living off-grid with his daughter whose quiet life unravels when an old nemesis resurfaces, forcing him back into a dangerous world. Paul Thomas Anderson blends political intrigue, dark comedy, and action into a personal story of resistance and family bonds. Acclaimed for its performances, striking visuals, and Jonny Greenwood's score, it's ambitious and thought provoking, though some find its pacing uneven. 7pm.
