There Will Be Blood - ?

.
Since news of Paul Thomas Anderson's new film, There Will Be Blood, came about last year, it has gotten so many posts that it almost deserves its own 'label.' A PTA film about religion, power, greed and family starring Daniel Day-Lewis with a score by Jonny Greenwood of Radiohead sounds more like my answer to a fantasy 'best case scenario' movie situation than an actual film. Given the import and anticipation for the film and the general need for face-to-face conversation instead of email, Doctor, Lawyer and Priest all converged in Dallas this weekend for Saturday's sold out Midnight sneak preview of There Will Be Blood at the Angelika. I've sworn off a review until I can see it again and our minimal groggy discussion indicated we all were still processing the dense and unrelenting film. So...we'll all be posting reviews in the next week or so. Stay tuned.And here is the rest of it.
