jimmy gator


either philip baker hall or sam jackson (i dont recall) make mention of jimmy gator which is of course hall's character in magnolia. what significance do you make of this?

reply

Jimmy (Sam Jackson) says to Sydney (PBH) " I know about Atlantic City, I know the people you know . . . Jimmy Gator, Floyd Gondoli "

Philip Baker Hall plays Floyd Gondoli in Boogie Nights & Jimmy Gator in Magnolia.

If Hard Eight is a dice throw of double fours - so far Paul Thomas Anderson has the first four - Sydney (Hard Eight), Boogie Nights, Magnolia & Punch Drunk Love.


I didn't mean to call you meat loaf, Jack !
