There Will Be Blood
There Will Be Blood
March 30
“a film of Darwinian ferocity, a stark and pitiless parable of American capitalism.” Christopher Orr - New Republic
“as close to perfection as you will find in a movie. It's dark and bleak in its material yet uplifting in the beauty of its craftsmanship.” Beth Accomando - KPBS.org
An epic in an old-fashioned sense which tells the story of ambition, greed and the beginnings of the oil industry in America. Based on the novel Oil by Upton Sinclair, it features a towering performance by Daniel Day-Lewis with masterly direction by Paul Thomas Anderson.
Enjoy the difference of an actor and a director who like to do their own thing working together to achieve greatness and something altogether new and surprising.
