About this product

Product Information

Director Paul Thomas Anderson's THERE WILL BE BLOOD is a masterly, unflinching examination of a consummately evil man. Daniel Plainview (via a transcendent performance by the great Daniel Day-Lewis) is, as he likes to remind those around him, an oil man: he finds it, he drills for it, and he makes money from it. Following a tip from a visitor named Paul Sunday, whose family sits atop a veritable ocean of oil, Plainview travels to the town of New Boston, California, with his young son. Sunday's preacher brother Eli (both roles are played by the excellent Paul Dano) grudgingly accepts Plainview's ambitions under the condition that he help fund the town church. As Plainview's plans come to fruition, a series of events begin to fracture the insular world he has constructed for himself, pitting Plainview against Sunday and forcing him to become even more vindictive and ruthless.Anderson proved with BOOGIE NIGHTS and MAGNOLIA that he was adept at handling expansive storylines and layered plots; however, he stakes out a claim here as a new master of the cinematic epic. The film is visually stunning, and alternates between lush widescreen shots of the desert and meticulously composed, darkly lit close-up of his actors, presenting complex images of the American landscape and the souls that dot it. As a narrative, THERE WILL BE BLOOD is told with a sense of economy, yet never at the expense of the film's inherently grand scope. It's difficult to determine precisely what Anderson wants his viewers to take from the experience: the film is, in the end, appropriately complex and ambiguous. THERE WILL BE BLOOD forces us to confront Plainville, who seems to be a larger-than-life personification of evil; that we don't entirely understand him at the film's conclusion is not a shortcoming, but rather a tribute to the depths of this most vile creature and this most brilliant film.

    Overblown

    This is strictly a vehicle for Daniel Day Lewis to the point of self indulgence. LONG old testament type story of vergence and retribution. Horrible ending after watching this really SLOW movie for 2 1/2 hours. If you want to see this type of story watch East of Eden, same idea 1000 times better.

  • He Likes To Think of Himself as an Oilman.

    With the introduction of "I like to think of myself as an oilman," Daniel Day Lewis electrifies the screen in this movie which actually has little blood. And he speaks in a swagger that will be forever his, much like Marlon Brando owned Vito Corleone's whispery muttering in "The Godfather." Daniel Plainview (Day Lewis) starts out as a silver miner but becomes an oil man. His partner is his son H. W., who intrigues his clients much like Tatum O'Neil wowed them in "Paper Moon." We can tell the progress of his oil skills as H. W. grows up from a baby to a man in the movie. But H. W. is dispensable just like anyone else in this story of greed and madness. The other main character is Eli and Paul Sunday both played by Paul Dano. This young man was first Paul, the salesman of his father's ...

  • I Drink Your Milkshake!

    Directed by Paul Thomas Anderson, the film is presented in an assured and confident manner. Anderson is the most naturally gifted filmmaker of his generation, a fact that is evident here. Packed with breathtaking shots and scenes of boiling intensity, the movie makes no apologies about its tendency towards the grandeur inherent in telling an epic story that spans decades. Perhaps the first thing that will strike viewers will be the unavoidable use of imagery that comes naturally when setting a story in the old west. However, Anderson's latest effort also packs enough depth and complexity to let you know that it never relies solely on this foundation. Although ripe with symbolism, There Will Be Blood does not settle for merely the pretense of poignancy by imagery. Instead it gives us ...

  • Genius.

    To start, I believe this movie is a masterpiece. Though I am certainly NOT knocking "No Country for Old Men", which was stellar in every aspect, I believe the scope and achievement by Paul Thomas Anderson was of greater detail and magnitude. Of which, I think this should have won the Oscar for Best Picture. Having said that, Daniel Day-Lewis was a shoe-in for winning Oscar for Best Leading performance by an Actor. Indeed, I have trouble recalling ANY performance of late that even comes close to rivaling the intensity and departure of belief that Lewis instilled as the self-made oil tycoon, Daniel Plainview. Anderson expresses many artistic touches throughout the film. In fact, dialog doesn't start until well after 15 minutes! The movie is gritty, honest and intense. The acting by pretty ...
