There Will Be Blood is a fantastic film about the two most important things in America: capitalism and religion. Daniel Day-Lewis gives an astonishing performance. Working with an actor of his caliber must be a wondrous experience for all involved. The score is stressful and foreboding. The shots and sets are meticulously composed and beautifully lit. When a movie is truly great it converses with the audience. This film serves as a 2 hour and forty minute discussion of obsession, isolation, and value. Paul Thomas Anderson has created a fantastic work that has taken him to the level of the new master of Hollywood film.
Thrilling.
