'There Will Be Blood'


As noted in a recent New Yorker profile about George Clooney, he and a handful of other actors were on hand for some pre-Oscar roundtable to discuss acting and boogers.

In reference to Daniel Day-Lewis, Clooney said, "You just kill it for the rest of us; we'll take care of you, pal."

There is not a more intense actor in the business right now -- the manifestations of human emotions are distinct and true, from Daniel Plainview playing with his adopted infant son on the train or the madness that overtakes him at the end.

There are many things right about this movie and so little wrong with it.
