An epic movie by PTA for DDL!

Rating: 8/10 (14 May 2012)

A stark parable of American Capitalism! Daniel Day-Lewis is perfect in the portrayal of Daniel Plainview, an oilman and a very complex character. The movie shows us how a man that strives on his ruthlessness of greed and corruption can also destroy himself.
A masterpiece by P.T.Anderson for Daniel Day-Lewis! This is another example of why Daniel Day-Lewis gets so good characters. And he seems to be refusing roles which do not have at least one freak-out scene. And he's at his best in such scenes (The final 'I Drink Your Milkshake' scene in this movie alongwith a few others like the one with Pastor Eli).
The music, cinematography, direction and acting in this film make for an epic experience. A few scenes are so breathtakingly beautiful that they leave an ever-lasting impression! Must Watch!
