More Blood

A friend of mine, a smart and talented film director made this point about TWBB and I agree:

"There Will Be Blood was one of the stories of the birth of what America became...the idea that Capitalism and religion are the two halves of the American soul, and this movie showed the two extremes, both Eli and Daniel are excessive in their beliefs, and how they could never co-exist."

Yep, that's about right.

Hmmm.....have YOU seen it?

I still haven't seen it, mainly just due to scheduling issues, but PTA is one of my favorite directors and I am really looking forward to getting my butt kicked.
