There Will Be Blood (2007)

Directed By: Paul Thomas Anderson

No matter how much he has he wants more. Thus causing tensions in everyone around him. It's 1900s and oil is the way to go! Fortune should come knocking one day when Paul Sunday approaches Daniel with a prospective future! This is just the beginning of things to come for Daniel but not everything comes without a price. Will Daniel find success or will his greed lead him down a path of no return?

This film had beautiful cinematography, an excellent score, and excellent casting. The story felt like it took forever to end but I suppose it's for aiding to the ending. Which I can't reveal to avoid spoilers. Overall, this movie was good. It's not something I'd normally check out but it was recommended to me. If you love period dramas with some truths, thematic elements of pain/frustration/greed, excellent cinematography check it out.

7.3/10 My rating is purely opinion. It's not normally a film I'd go out of my way to watch. It was memorable but in some views forgettable.
