What is this film trying to convey? How did the capitalists make their fortunes? First rely on your own efforts, and then constantly look for opportunities. It will never rely on equal cooperation, mutual benefit and win-win results, but deceive and strengthen power, which means a bit of carrot and stick.

From the perspective of sympathy, the earliest capitalists also started from scratch. Take the protagonist of this film, for example, who single-handedly panned for gold and discovered oil by accident. The child has lost his mother since he was a child, and many times he has to hold the child in one hand and work with the other, which is indeed not easy. It can be said that being a father and a mother, the child shares all the achievements with him, and he also feels great satisfaction. But when the child became deaf because of an accident, although his career was getting better and better, he was increasingly unhappy. I can't even live a normal life and lose the joy of life.

It's still better to be happy.

    Fuck, after many years, the second brush still feels that the bull is overwhelming. I must write an article to pay tribute to today's favorite actor DDL and director PTA!

    If the "Master" is worth four stars, this one is worth five stars. The soundtrack and photography are as magnificent and insignificant as Paulo Anderson, just like a man to the sea, and a paranoid and rebellious character. The narrative is much smoother and clearer than the "Master". At times, Lewis's performance was impeccable.

There Will Be Blood quotes

  • Fletcher Hamilton: H.W. okay?

    Plainview: No, he isn't.

  • Plainview: [Paul Sunday has offered to sell Plainview information] Why'd you come to me?

    Paul Sunday: You just brought this well in?

    Plainview: That's right.

    Paul Sunday: Yes, so just give me five hundred dollars in cash, right now, and I'll tell you where it is.

    Plainview: I'll tell you what I'll do, son. I'll give you a hundred dollars now and, if it proves to be a promising lease, then give a thousand dollar bonus...

    Paul Sunday: Six hundred dollars.

    Plainview: Just tell me one thing to help me decide. What else have you got up there. What do you grow?

    Paul Sunday: We have a big ranch, but it's mostly rocks. We can plant things; nothing will grow but weeds. What makes you think it's up?

    Fletcher Hamilton: Is there sulfur around, or alkali deposits?

    Paul Sunday: Alkali, nearby. I don't know sulfur.
