Without Daniel Day Lewis I don't think this movie could have achieved what it has. The deceiving, the greed, the thirst for power and the every man for himself attitude actually looked more real than ever to me. His thirst for power and money was at such a high level that it made me wonder about what people are really capable of. He freaked me out and probably shocked many people. Daniel Day Lewis gave arguably the best performance of his career playing Daniel Plaiview or ever since movies began to be made. It is just truly spectacular in every way. Now to get to the technical aspects of There Will Be Blood. That is one aspect of the education I'am talking about: our experiences and understanding of what is happening around us. He uses his experience that he had gained as a kid to break free of the corruption and chaos that could have taken over him. sees and experiences he sees that much of what is around him is just wrong. That is how Daniel Plainview is able to manipulate and cheat them the Sunday family, even Eli Sunday(Paul Dano) the priest and preacher of Little Boston. from the residents and evangelists of Little Boston? The difference is that he and his father are educated and they are not. He shows that despite being deaf and having a father who uses him as a ploy for better business he can still break free of the chains that he is being tied down by. the son of Daniel Plainview(Daniel Day Lewis). Now is their any alternative or positive side? The answer is yes and that is H.W. Not all Christains are like Paul Dano's character and not all business man are like Daniel Day Lewis's character but many are like them. What people cannot accept is though that these same extremities and same misguided opinions from both characters are very much true in that they are heavily believed still today. Both Daniel Day Lewis and Paul Dano are wrong and too extreme on their opinions. Maybe why people did not like this movie is because it might have offended them. Even worse is that this movie shows that religious people, priests are or can be as bad as a corrupt oil man. Or maybe even the battle between evangelicals of today and the non-religious people or atheists of today. It shows the battle between the evangelicals and the corporate business man. What it shows that Big Fish eats Litte Fish and none of us want to think about that anymore than most of us experience it in our daily life. I can understand that this movie is so depressing in so may ways. People did not like this movie for a simple reason: too negative.
