Oil made lyrical
PostedApril 7, 2008

I had no idea that the beginning of "Big Oil" could be portrayed in such a lyrical fashion. What struck me most about the film was Day-Lewis' performance, and it made sense to me then that he makes one film every two or three years. He has an amazing ability to disappear into his characters, something that is said about many actors but is only true maybe 1% of the time. I was completely mesmerized by him and also by the tenacity and skill of Anderson - it takes guts to make this kind of movie today, and yet he did it and made a masterpiece. Bravo.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
