Written by Paul Thomas Anderson, Upton SinclairDirected by Paul Thomas AndersonProduction Year: 2008Rating: 15 CertificateProduction Country: USAFilmed in ColourRuthless silver miner, turned oil prospector, Daniel Plainview (Daniel Day-Lewis) moves to oil-rich California. Using his adopted son HW (Dillon Freasier) to project a trustworthy, family-man image, Plainview cons local landowners into selling him their valuable properties for a pittance. However, local preacher Eli Sunday (Paul Dano) suspects Plainview's motives and intentions, starting a slow-burning feud that threatens both their lives. Adapted from the novel Oil!, by Upton Sinclair, director Paul Thomas Anderson's towering drama, released in 2007, won near-universal critical acclaim. Mercilessly stripping bare Plainview's selfishness and greed, Day-Lewis roars and rages his way to a place in cinema history. A brilliant, brutal study of a self-made monster. Highly recommended.
