Hard Eight is one my favorites, I like it better then Magnolia and Punch Drunk Love. Phillip Baker Hall just makes that story, he's so perfect for the role.

It is a hard-to-find film, it brings a smile to my face every time someone new is able to see it.

Definetly worth a buy if you cant rent it somewhere, although its very different from Boogie Nights or Magnolia, its still good, a very distinct style.
