Listener's Choice Volume 001 // There Will Be Blood

Published: April 12, 2021, noon

Randomly selected from listener submissions, we review 2007's There Will Be Blood, starring Daniel Day-Lewis and Paul Dano. Two-thirds of the podcast but didn't quite know how we felt about it on the first watch. Our anonymous third co-host was a There Will Be Blood virgin. We discuss the anxiety-inducing score, the performances, and get confused as to who Sinclair is and isn't. 

This movie was directed by Paul Thomas Anderson.
