To celebrate the release of Paul Thomas Anderson's new psychedelic noir Inherent Vice, Warner Bros. Pictures have given us a JBL Pulse Bluetooth speaker and an Inherent Vice t-shirt to give away.
Inherent Vice is the seventh feature from Anderson and the first ever film adaptaton of a Thomas Pynchon novel.
The synopsis reads: "When private eye Doc Sportello's (Joaquin Phoenix) ex-old lady suddenly out of nowhere shows up with a story about her current billionaire land developer boyfriend whom she just happens to be in love with, and a plot by his wife and her boyfriend to kidnap that billionaire...
"It's the tail end of the psychedelic '60s and paranoia is running the day and Doc knows that 'love' is another of those words going around at the moment, like 'trip' or 'groovy', that's being way too overused - except this one usually leads to trouble.
"With a cast of characters that includes surfers, hustlers, dopers and rockers, a murderous loan shark, LAPD Detectives, a tenor sax player working undercover, and a mysterious entity known as the Golden Fang, which may only be a tax dodge set up by some dentists...
"Part surf noir, part psychedelic romp - all Thomas Pynchon."
