There Will Be Blood
horizontal line

The hunger and tenacity for oil and a deep-seated antagonism for a zealous evangelist (Paul Dano) of an aesthetic, greedy, and obsessive turn-of-the-century sociopathic prospector (Daniel Day-Lewis) in this compelling, but slow-moving, 2-1/2 hour film that has a striking musical score and was inspired by Upton Sinclair's 1927 novel Oil lead not only to riches for his partners (CiarĂ¡n Hinds, et al.) and to the estrangement of his son (Dillon Freasier/Russell Harvard) after a tragic accident leaves him deaf but to his slow descent in madness, bitterness, and self-imposed alienation.
