Last year was one of the strongest that cinema has seen in a decade, and There Will Be Blood is widely regarded as one of 2007's best — Daniel Day-Lewis even has a statue to prove that his performance was tops. In previous films like 1997's Boogie Nights and 1999's Magnolia, P.T. Anderson exhibited a capacity for leading sprawling ensemble casts through difficult aesthetic, psychological, and structural terrain, but this epic about the rise and fall of a '20s oil tycoon in the American West distills the director's unflinching vision. It's a spare, searing, and unpredictable study of one of this country's defining impulses: manifest destiny.
