Credit Due Where Credit Is Deserved: 'There Will Be Blood' Fails To Disappoint In Any One Category

Rating: 10/10 (12 January 2008)

Those Who Made This Masterpiece A Reality:
Paul Thomas Anderson (fabulous direction and clarity, a script that binds and chills) Upton Sinclair (for being there to write the loose basis for this film almost 100 years ago)
Jonny Greenwood (the most experimentally haunting soundtrack to grace the silver screen) Daniel Day-Lewis (delivering line after line of greedy, spoiled, relentless, maniacal gold) Paul Dano (for playing identical twins with polarpersonalities) Mark Bridges (for stunningly real costume design that truly warps time) Robert Elswit (epic cinematography that makes the screen ten times bigger than it actually is) Dillon Freasier (for being able, at such an age, to portray the shock of being deafened)
