There Will Be Blood (2007) | Ep. 19 - Part 1

I drink your milkshake. John, Westy, and Matt begin the story of Paul Thomas Anderson's monumental study of greed, oil and a man hollowing himself out.In Part 1 we cover the film's opening, director Paul Thomas Anderson, the cast, and the second act — including that near-wordless opening stretch, Daniel Day-Lewis's towering Daniel Plainview, and the simmering battle of wills with Paul Dano's preacher.The bowling-alley finale is famous for a reason, and we're not there yet. Part 2 takes the last drop: crew, finale, reception, legacy.
