This films starts at the turn-of-the-century petroleum boom in California. Daniel Plainview and his son have come to a small town in search of oil and riches. In this pursuit he is successful but he strikes liquid gold but the corruption, violence and treachery that result will inevitably alter the lives of many, and threaten the sacred bond between a father and son in a small western town.
This film has been nominated a number of Oscars including best film and best actor for Daniel Day Lewis. This film is Oscar material but that does mean that it is not also the most comfortable viewing for the audience. There are some quite intense scenes that may intimidate some members of the audience. There are a number of slow scenes that may leave some sections of the audience quite bored.
However, in my opinion this film is deserving of its multiple BAFTA awards and the Oscars which are soon to follow. Daniel Day Lewis, who is the lead, is spectacular and provides an acting masterpiece. Although, the rest of the cast is probably unknown to most cinema goers they still provide solid performances.
The main positive about this film other than the performance of Daniel Day Lewis is the dialogue. Through brilliant dialogue the film is easy to follow for an attentive audience, there is horror in the dialogue and humor, a difficult combination to master.
Ultimately, the length, intensity, slow nature of slow scenes and plot make this film unsuitable for most audiences. However, if you want to see a film with good acting, dialogue worth listening to unlike some modern films and one of the best films this year then see this film. Hopefully, the Oscars get it right this year!
