Daniel Day Lewis and Paul Thomas Anderson on There Will Be Blood: Reel Pieces with Annette Insdorf 

Amen to that ! And the voice he used blew me away (sounded a lot to me like John Huston and his dad Walter Huston) !

@@jubalcalif9100 it was definitely john Huston I listened to his voice and I’d say DDL did a spot on John Huston voice not question about it

@@mohammedashian8094 I totally agree with you, Mr A ! You obviously have a good ear !

@@jubalcalif9100 well I don’t know about good ear I do have a big ear though

@@mohammedashian8094 My ears aren't exactly petite either. In high winds I've got to wear a winter hat with the flaps down....otherwise I may take off higher than Sally Field during her "Flying Nun" days !! :-)

me is better actor

And humanoids in general I think

honestly

I have a notion to second that emotion ! :-)

The movie as a whole doesn't get enough credit! But i'm certain people will appreciate it all the more with time, just like all true works of art.

nor does his shirt

I don’t think dano was all that impressive. Id love to have seen what DiCaprio could have done with the role of Eli Sunday.

@@pjincho You're an idiot.

I think he is a VERY shy man

He's a massive alcoholic, like Liam Neeson, so he is necessarily private. He isnt a very together guy. Great actor though.

@@powerbite92 true though 🌿

@@powerbite92 how do you know that?

@@evelynoliveira9447 People who work with him in the industry.

@Midgeon Mac someone doesn’t understand sarcasm

Exactly, any other year and Blood wins all the oscars. Damn shame

Does having a certain award diminish or enhance its quality? Fuck does it matter?

@@richardcampbell8498 not at all it just shows new viewers it's recognition

Eastern Promises came out the same year as well. Amazing year overall

Its a shame that you mess around with the man You are like a child in play, on a sunny day, the way I am feeling good, boy I will be needing you

Elias Smith Phantom thread is still scheduled for this year I'm too excited!

Wish granted

Actually this year!

It was beautiful phantom thread

shame about what she decides to do with it

she is asking the most retarded questions i have ever seen.

I think the interviewer is wrong in a few hypothesis and assumptions, which would put off DDL and PTA. They do have a slight moment of silence and hesitation sometimes, which is telling.

The guy is just on another level when it comes to acting so these questions are way too simple.

I agree

I think it's the opposite of this - a large part of his process is unconscious, not deliberate, thought out choices - if a magician worked this way his show would be a distaster.

@@cartoonvandal Or he would become a mighty sorcerer.

@@cartoonvandal You still have to be conscious as an actor. Which he is. He knows it's a film and he's working on a template of a script. If he lost track of that there wouldn't have THERE WILL BE BLOOD.

WHy are you surprised it's depressing the poor guy is literally being asked how he finds his brilliance as an Artist. It's utterly soul destroying and exhuasting.

@@cartoonvandal Unconscious and chanelled from the Universal mind.

Wow, good catch. Probably the only time I've seen Daniel Plainview in Daniel Day Lewis

7:22 for a very brief moment

32:11 too

Hahahah oh my god

Daniel Day Lewis seemed to really detest this interviewer xD he got pissed when she mentioned the bowling pin

Did he FINISH it? ;)

That's what a narcissist does.

gotta love them lol

Its more complex than that. He seemed pretty content at the end of the movie that Paul had his own Oil production and was making a decent living for himself. His contempt for both his son and Eli is more complicated in my opinion

@@NickBigsmoke Paul is someone like Daniel. Paul did what was necessary for him to earn money and become successful. So did Plainview. So in a sense, Plainview and Paul are similar. And Plainview knows he made Paul. He gave him the chance to become successful. But Eli and H.W were not Like Daniel. H.W was raised by a wealthy man. He merely had anything to worry about in his Childhood. He was in good hands. And Eli was a fraud. He used his cheap tricks to influence poor people into believing in his false gimmicks. So clearly, Daniel believes these two are lesser Than him.

I love his shirt.

I agree 100 per cent !

The questions seemed pretty good, she was kind of annoying in the same way ALL interviewers of celebrity are. He was never really a theatre actor I don't think so its likely that he or Paul aren't comfortable in front of a crowd.

@@mikearchibald744 You’re kinda right. He was a prolific theatre actor for just over 10 years, but that was some time ago, even from this interview.

@@AdamSmith75th Ok I didn't know that, but performing for a crowd is different from interviews. He's not somebody who has ever seemed particularly comfortable in interviews let alone a room like this. Sadly I always find too many interviewers go to 'interview school' and learn a very particular way of asking questions. Anyway, I didn't think she was 'too' bad, or them either.

@@mikearchibald744 No, he doesn’t seem comfortable I suppose. I don’t think that’s down to him being particularly shy or anxious about talking in front of people and crowds, (I could be wrong of course) but I think his nervous energy comes from the questions and interviewer themselves. He doesn’t like talking about his process, he’s very careful on how he talks about it and what words to use. He’s often been flakey about questions surrounding his process in character work because he claims that he can never find the words to explain it. He also really doesn’t like or answer questions about his personal life. He is very guarded about all of that and so I feel he brings a trepidatious energy to these interviews. The proof of all of this is in how few and far between he did them. It may also be the fact he doesn’t like speaking in front of crowds of course. We will never truly know.

Check his interview with Oprah, there he is very open, relaxed and happy.

adh0522 There’s a competition in him. He wants no one else to succeed.

Gabriel Moran what does that mean?

w2c

It's a style, what are you talking about, sry pal! Ya blew it

They are partners in crime don't you know ... that's the crime ...

Horrible

+Z Channel Why should they give a shit?

As much as I love this man as an actor and a humanitarian I wonder what it’s like being married to a man who becomes another person without breaking character. For instance, the butcher in Gangs of NY.

That's what I've always thought he goes home like that man, even Daniel said when he won a Oscar he said and to my wife have to deal with multiple people at home lol

Righttt? She didn’t understand that plain view was a demented man so full Of ego and pride that couldn’t let anyone beat him? She tweaking

@@zvodin1209 Considering how many men turn out like this, thats pretty much just a description, not actual psychological knowledge.

@@mikearchibald744 The scene with his false brother is the most overt psychological introspection. "I have a competition in me. I want no one else to succeed."

I think she meant that she couldn't find any positive things to learn from this character? He only seems to show greed and narcissism.

She was probably on her phone, doing the social media thing and wasn't paying attention! :D

I'd like to take the train known as the Cannonball to Hooterville with Daniel and spend a weekend with him at the Shady Rest Hotel ! Just to sit on the front porch in the evening, having some drinks and discussing everything under the sun with him would be heavenly !

@@jubalcalif9100 he would be desperately bored with you

@@FoodforThought12345678dsds Actually, he's a man who was brought up with good manners and he'd thus be appalled at your boorish assumptions. Actually, why in the world would he or I or anyone else care what you think ? Does a mighty steed take notice of a jack ass ? No, indeed....

british humor at its wryest

What he meant was he didn't watch it for the movie

Adorable, huh??? One of the most endearing things about DDL is the way every one of his characters-even the darker ones-touch someone in the scene with compassion. The way he strokes H.W.’s face and kisses him seems like a bit of a window into DDL as a father in real life. Never mind the shooting and clubbing and knife throwing...DDL always comes across to me as SUCH a giving soul.

I think you're bang on the money bud. Any of the times he loses his shit it's when he feels abandoned so it's very likely he had an absentee father or dare I postulate was even adopted or orphaned himself. It's interesting how he defends and seems to like Mary Sunday but then again it's also a power play against the father. People always say how evil or "psychotic" the character is when he clearly isn't he cries multiple times, when sending HW away, when he reads his fake brothers diary, definitely not psychopath behavior. It's just a lot more complicated than I think critics boiled it down to which is part of why it's such a fascinatingly layered story, and a very tragic one. As for the greed I wrestle with this theme myself because he doesn't seem like a cheapskate but he does seem to think it can fill the void. Part of me feels like it was more about the drive and the megalomaniacal pursuit of power, rather than the physical aspects of just owning things or having money. Like he feels so barren and incomplete inside, he is highly suspect of people so refuses to be vulnerable which pushes them away and makes this weird self fulfilling prophecy for him of how people are just wasted carbon.

@@tonywords6713 Great insight. Thank you for sharing here.

pretty much - he's a character who started out life with plenty of reason to be hateful and malicious and then the story walks us through each little moment that just continued to pile on until he succumbs to his own personal hell when he reaches the culmination of all of his life's ambition...... "i'm finished" that last line really nails it.

Or he could be acting

Google it: "interview Fiona Apple about T.Anderson". Thank me later. Not a nice story.

don't get it? why?

Beacuse the guy who makes the Resident Evil-movies name is Paul Anderson.

Ha ha thats a good story.

Wholeheartedly agree.

He’s amazingly brilliant.

you've inside his brain????

@Midgeon Mac false

True, let the film speak for itself.

It's not a note to self if you're posting it on a public forum

@@TypoDiabetes According to....? this need of yours I must satisfy?

Absolutely true! He ( they) really don’t like to

Sorry, you mispelled "insane". As in, insanely amazing questions!!!! Am I right!!

DDL is way better than Hopkins though.

Daniel and Leo are no Percy Helton...but they are truly gifted actors !

He does actually. You’re right

Yeah, but he’s nothing short of delightful. He really is trying so hard NOT to come off as self absorbed, when every question thrown at him is only to do with methods and intentions. He’s an artist. Period. “I don’t like to explain myself.”

DDL talked and talked but never really said anything. Not impressed.

And you've seen a gay pirate before? Or are you just some homophobic prick who thinks that 'gay' is funny?

I thought the opposite.
