I need to catch up here, I've watched a lot of movies lately.

But did I mention that I saw There Will Be Blood?

And that it is quite possibly one of the best films I have seen ever?

I'm a little mystified as to how this film came out of PT Anderson. Not that I don't like him, I like him very much. But the film is a bit otherworldly. To me, it's as if residents of another planet observed us and then made this film for their planet. Eh, or I could be overdoing it.

At any rate, it is a fine, fine, fine, fine film and I recommend it highly.

10/10
