I dunno about "the Master."  The early buzz was good, but as it went wider, and more saw it, I sensed a definite let down, and an increasing number who felt the film was too esoteric, too cryptic, and ultimately not one of Anderson's best efforts.  It seems to have left the public dialog, whereas previous films with

Mega dittos.  He's still the weakest character IMO.  Most of what he does is make sarcastic remarks aimed at his friends, and one wonders why he hangs with them if he has such animosity toward them (it's a dynamic I miss from the early episodes, which was a bit more abut the four of them interacting).
