Oil represents desire. This is an oil tycoon's fortune, accompanied by this history, in addition to death, or death. The death of the well may be inevitable, and what is even more chilling is the blood brought by one's own selfish desires. This is a world in which the pursuit of fame and fortune is unscrupulous. It was like this 100 years ago, and it will be even worse 100 years later. You must know that the current oil price has exceeded 100 US dollars. With such a high interest, you can imagine how much blood is in the gushing oil.
Religion, represents belief. The whole world is the same, the reason for needing faith is that people want to atone for their sins. Unfortunately, our Daniel is an out-and-out money worshipper whose only belief is money. Of course, this is just to foil the hypocrisy of the mainstream church, which culminates in Eli's blasphemy at the end. When you have money, you are God. When you don’t have money, God will not take care of you. That’s it. To put it bluntly, money is God.
Sons and brothers, representing family. If there is one place in this world that we can trust, it is home. Poor Daniel once had such an incomplete but still warm home, but his oil-blackened heart made him lose everything in the end. This is the real old man, very straightforward.
Doing a film like this can be frustrating, Daniel Day-Lewis did it, nearly 3 hours of play, a shrewd businessman, a stubborn pecuniary, an old and nowhere father, and an American dream. Life. Before the Oscars, he had already won the award softly, but unfortunately he was too tired that day and did not insist on seeing the best actor award. This gentleman has produced very few films, but they are all excellent.
Gained the world, lost the soul, God somehow showed his fairness.
