Title: There Will Be Blood
Year: 2008
Director: Paul Thomas Anderson
Lead: Daniel Day-Lewis
Rated: R for some violence
This film is loosely based off of Upton Sinclair's novel entitled "Oil!". Its about a greedy oil man and his son buying up land in to drill for oil.
This film is very dark. The score is very creepy, and there always seems to be trouble coming. We see Daniel Day-Lewis' character go through a giant transformation through this film, he gets crazier and crazier until the breaking point. This film won 2 Oscars, best actor and best cinematography, and let me say, the cinematography in this is an absolute work of art, they found fantastic places to shoot, and they caught everything just right, the setting is perfect, and Day-Lewis' performance is spot on, he does absolutely everything right... and let me say, this is my favourite film, I could watch it over and over again, it has everything. 9 1/2 stars out of 10
this movie was really hard to get through, especially since i watched it in my communications design class (all i wanted to do was use the computer...)
