What an exquisite film--so soft, quiet, and lined with darkness. The atmosphere that Paul Thomas Anderson has created is unlike any other I've seen in cinema. Daniel Day-Lewis is phenomenal, as usual, and both Vicky Krieps and Lesley Manville are mesmerizing. This is a film about behavior and drive. It's about the constant struggles and conflicts that most artists live with every day--how do you learn to find balance between the love you feel for a person and the passion you have for your art? A truly remarkable film with so many twists and turns.
