Punch Drunk Love - What About This Guy Is Interesting?

Published: Jan. 4, 2022, 11 a.m.

In the early 2000s, people started learning that Adam Sandler was more than just Billy Madison, Happy Gilmore, and the Wedding Singer. He had range! He could drama!

\n

Punch Drunk Love was one of the movies that helped turn Sandler from a comedian into an actor. And, at the time, it was pretty good. If you'd asked early 2000s Don and Chuck what they thought of the movie, they'd have probably said so themselves.

\n

But this podcast is not hosted by early 2000s Don and Chuck. As it turns out, the movie hasn't exactly aged with them. They speak at length about what doesn't work for them, what rings true, and what questions the film leaves them with. Punch Drunk Love does let them talk about some important lessons, however. 

\n

Lessons include:

\n
    \n
  • The importance of having someone to talk to
  • \n
  • Why you should learn more about yourself and your feelings
  • \n
  • Why "saving face" is useless.
  • \n
  • How to deter bullies
  • \n
