IFI YOUTH PANEL: PUNCH DRUNK LOVE

Director: Paul Thomas Anderson

95 mins, USA, 2002, Digital


Stricken with loneliness, Barry Egan (Adam Sandler) goes to the only place he can find someone to listen: a phone-sex hotline. As he begins to fall for a friend of his sisters, the phone business operators put both their lives in danger.

Join for a post-screening discussion between the IFI Youth Panel and Dr Ciarán Kissane, Director of Film Classification, Irish Film Classification Office (IFCO), on film classification and decide if a new classification is merited for Punch-Drunk Love applying IFCO’s 2025 Guidelines and current research.

The IFI Youth Panel is formed from 25 & Under cardholders, see more at ifi.ie/25under
