typical me!!!

After watching Last of The Mohicans, My Left Foot (eons ago), Gangs of New York I have to admit that I was very impressed by and therefore have become a fan of Daniel Day Lewis. A Method actor, takes his roles seriously….actually very seriously, I’ve read about it. This man is sincere and crazy.

So I was very happy that Daniel Day Lewis got the Oscar. I heard it was a easy task for the jury members, cos it was like Daniel Day Lewis should win. From many blogs I I hoped he’d win, cos I want all my best actors to win an Oscar or get their second oscar( don’t worry Johnny, you’ll also get it). So since it was an Oscar movie, PVR( only PVR) released the movie in Mumbai.

So I went for this movie which is about a man Daniel Plainview(Daniel Day Lewis) an oil prospector/businessman along with his adopted son H.W. Plainview(Dillon Freasier). When Daniel gets a tip from a Paul Sunday (Paul Dano) about existence of a lot of oil in a remote place, he goes in pursuit and meets Eli Sunday(Paul Dano), Paul’s twin brother, a Pastor who has his own ambitions.

Amazing Background score by Johnny Greenwood. Paul Dano after Little Miss Sunshine gave a mighty performance as a Pastor Eli Sunday which took me a back in time( just a few years ago), especially at the scene when he pounces on his father and the scenes where he gets back on Daniel at the Church. Dillon Freasier as H.W Plainview, now that someone I would want to talk about. Boy of few words in the film, but his silence, his way of noticing people and what they talk has amazed me of how young kids can really act. Now that’s where Silence is Golden. Good that Paul Thomas Anderson gave him a good screen space. Daniel Day Lewis, well he got the Oscar for his performance, therefore I don’t have to mention anything else.
