One of its kind to be made in Hollywood.

Rating: 10/10 (19 January 2009)

A magnificent piece of work by Paul Thomas Anderson. Daniel Day Lewis truly deserved the Oscar for the kind of acting he displayed including the lust for money,insanity,anger,ambition,emotional trauma.I have never ever seen a Hollywood piece of work like this. This movie follows the life a ambitious young man of early 1900s from building up his small oil well to discovering the greatest oil reserve in his life and how this discovery effects his own life and how he starts taking pride in himself building hatred towards other people in pursuing his lust for money. It also explores the type of superstition prevailing in that era among the local countrymen. In a nutshell this movie deserves a special place in the Hollywood because this is just one of its kind to be made. Don't miss it!
