Most movies take place in either the real world or a fantasy world. Some filmmakers like to blur the two, like how Tarantino's movies play out in his own version of reality, or how the Conjuring series and its spinoffs imagine a version of our world where Ed and Lorraine Warren weren't con artists but actually battled paranormal forces of evil for real. Loosely inspired by Thomas Pynchon's 1990 novel 'Vineland', Paul Thomas Anderson's One Battle After Another takes place in a version of America that overlays the 1970s on top of our current times. In Anderson's world, the organised left-wing revolutionaries of the Nixon era still operate, freeing migrants from detainment camps, pulling off bank robberies in the manner of the Symbionese Liberation Army, and blowing up federal buildings like the far right militia of '80s America.
