Elegantly Crafted Masterpiece (by imew) |
Intimate, delicate, and a beautifully crafted masterpiece. Paul Thomas Anderson manages to expresses an artist's creative journey through threads of fashion and romance with such subtlety that it could only be conveyed through the medium of film. An atmosphere reminiscent of Kubrick's achievements, this romantic odyssey illustrates a unique perspective of love; a perspective in which love is shaped and manipulated by the fragile strings of each character's hearts. To begin with, I will praise an awfully disregarded aspect of "Phantom Thread": the cinematography and <more> |
The Art Of Being (by damian-fuller) |
Daniel Day Lewis adds a new extraordinary character to his gallery of extraordinary characters. All men and each one of them a total original variety of male. From the gay punck rocker of "My Beautiful Launderette' to Abraham Lincoln in "Lincoln" Now Reynolds Woodcock, an artist in the world of fashion a man who lives his work as his only form of expression. The frustration by any form of interruption by anything or anyone out of place guarantees his private isolation and yet he craves the warmth of human intimacy. The complexity of Ryan Woodcock becomes totally accessible <more> |
Mindblowing Depiction Of a Suspenseful Romance (by KamSinghOfficial) |
This is the most unique romance film to come out in all of history. Paul Thomas Anderson has struck Gold again with this masterpiece. The Screenplay is really original and very engaging. Usually when people watch a film, they tend to doze off at times because of slow moments. This film however, you cannot look away, you cannot blink because the timeless beauty and sheer elegance that this film has is unparalleled. What keeps you so engaged is the breathtaking cinematography shot on a 35mm camera, the Stand out performances from Daniel Day Lewis , and Vicky Kriceps and also the amazing <more> |
about greatness by those who are also great (by ferguson-6) |
Greetings again from the darkness. There is a certain feeling that envelops me while experiencing exquisite filmmaking. It's a singular blend of peacefulness and excitement as an anticipation of greatness builds in those early scenes. That feeling has rarely swept over me as quickly as the opening moments of this new film from writer/director Paul Thomas Anderson, a six-time Oscar nominee.We need only watch Reynolds Woodcock Daniel Day-Lewis go through his morning ritual to understand that he is a fastidious individual to the point that could easily be described as obsessive-compulsive. <more> |
Welcome back Paul Thomas Anderson (by hwoodward-75747) |
The Phantom Thread is another fantastic Paul Thomas Anderson movie. I always enjoy Paul Thomas Anderson movies. He's always been extremely careful and creative with the material that he is given. But sometimes he can not always deliver. His recent film being inherent vice, which was massively disappointing. But this new film of his, Phantom Thread is stupendous. The movie works like a snake; Playing on your instincts. This movie left me star-stuttered. Paul Thomas Anderson, like all of his movies, even the bad ones, have great direction. He has an amazing way of presenting gratifying <more> |
A Meticulous, Layered Drama from Paul Thomas Anderson (by bastille-852-731547) |
I'm a huge fan of director Paul Thomas Anderson's films except for "Inherent Vice," and was really looking forward to seeing this. After finally seeing it tonight, I can confirm that it does not disappoint. This delicate and utterly elegant period drama about a fictional tailor known as Reynolds Woodcock Daniel-Day Lewis relationship with a young woman played by Vicky Krieps. From its first frames, it is clear that PTA has paid sublime attention to detail with this film. Each scene feels truly finely crafted with a level of intense precision uncommonly found in even <more> |
Go See This With Caution (by statuskuo) |
I cannot, with good conscience, recommend this film to typical Americans, but will say, it would be worth it if you gave it a chance. Because the nuance will fall on folks who want to be relieved of their lives. This film is about the social elite and their issues when it comes to a consumed artist. Most people who have made art as a profession will understand completely. The story is of a man who excelled at his craft and is forced to see the human in rough sketched lines. Does that sound interesting to people who've just stepped out of "Jumanji"? Nope. But it is high art. This <more> |
A slow n non erotic version of Bitter moon with an awesome performance by Day Lewis. (by Fella_shibby) |
Saw this in a theatre. Movie aint that good but Daniel Day-Lewis' acting was phenomenal. He superbly potrayed the character of Reynolds Woodcock, who is obsessed with order, symmetry n following an organised routine. DDLs mannerisms, facial expressions n costumes were spot on. Many may hate the characters controlled behaviour but Woodcocks breakfast time was superb n so was his appetite. The film does hav repetitive trope of breakfasts for foodies. Also noteworthy is costume designer Mark Bridges incredible work, the look of Woodcocks suits n the gorgeous female dresses added a charm. <more> |
As good as the perfect "There Will be Blood" (by Joci12345) |
This is a breathtaking, perfect movie from every aspects.Paul Thomas Anderson is a genius and one of the best directors. Daniel Day-Lewis is as frenetic as always, just like P.T.

Directing: 10/10 Acting: 10/10 Script: 10/10I had been waiting for a really good movie, for a masterpiece and P.T. Anderson brought it to me, so I can only recommend one thing:Watch it as soon as you can : |
