Try (Michael Penn Song)
''Resigned'' is a 1997 album by singer-songwriter Michael Penn. "Try" music video A music video for "Try", the opening song from the album, was directed by Paul Thomas Anderson. Penn had written the score for Anderson's film ''Boogie Nights'', and the music video was shot with the crew, and certain members of the cast, of the film while it was in post-production.

Philip Seymour Hoffman makes two appearances in the video, the first time handing Penn a microphone and a guitar, the second time holding a boom mic in front of him. Hof ...
