There Will Be Blood (2007)

Splendid performances by DDL & Paul Dano (a very convincing preacher). Beautiful cinematography by Elswit. Hats off to the producers who took a risk in producing this film & to the scriptwriters for an outstanding adaptation of Sinclair's book.

There Will Be Blood (2007)

This movie will make concession to nothing and no one; you forcefully get dragged into the obsession of an oil genius and a god-crazy, starting with the first chilling 5 minutes, and will get out of it feeling both emptied and complete.
