- Actor Daniel-Day Lewis and writer-director Paul Thomas Anderson sit down for a conversation about "There Will Be Blood," a filmed adaptation of Upton Sinclair's 1927 novel "Oil!"
I was in high school and ditched school, snuck in to see this masterpiece, then snuck in to the next feature of no country for old men on the same day. Absolutely the best movie experience of my life.
Two of my all time favourite movies. You had a great experience.
Had a lot of hype. We all went to watch it in the theater and walked out feeling "meh."
That's a heavy day for a high schooler.
You're so lucky you had the foresight to know to go see them
@@joenichols3901 man it was just on a whim, literally no research into the movies. Really lucked out that day.
I can't believe that intro is from 2007, feels like 1995
Stuff from 2007-2008 is very dated looking (interview wise) its scary i know
That's exactly what I thought. I know 13 years is a long time but not _that_ long. This feels like it's 20-25 years old.
Casual. Show Charlie some respect virgin
So true
I can’t believe 2007 was 13 years ago
What amazes me the most isn't even his accent, but the fact that he's such a quiet, gentle man who portrayed such a terrifying wicked human being.
Gosh! Brando is so overrated
Barney Os. Oh so very true!
@@slickr_392 DDL is a Londoner who has Irish citizenship and speaks like a mixture of Northerner and an Irishman. And in Gangs of New York, he speaks like a New Yorker effortlessly. Doubt Brando can even come close.
He’s the best
He Is best actor
2007 was a breakthrough year in Hollywood's history. Two of the greatest classics of 21st century were made : There Will Be Blood and No Country For Old Men.
And The Assassination of Jesse James
Thyag Sundaramoorthy and they’ve been shot simultaneously and in part at similar locations! The Coen Brothers had to halt shooting one day because there was dark smoke in the atmosphere due to pyrotechnics from the set of No country for old men.
@@MrYessin87 correction: pyrotechnics from (There will be blood**)**
I'm not confirming what you are saying is true, but wanted to fix your statement as it is a nice thought.
I believe TWBB is leagues above NCFOM. But everyone has an opinion..
Couldn't agree more 2 of the best 5 movies ever on my list
@@spencermariano8454 and also zodiac came out that year!
The intensity he's capable of emoting is like a super power. He's so gentle when not acting it's surreal.
That's the sign of a true great.
It’s got to require some level of insanity for someone to be able to reach those levels
@@cjbotts Every human being has good and bad within them.
The only way you might get to really know the real Daniel-Day Lewis is if you and him were stuck on an island for 50years. Maybe only then.
Agreed
daniel day lewis: a
paul thomas anderson: i love you i love everything that you say i love you
LOL
I think it could also be the other way round
don’t we all though?
"It begins and it ends with the writing. if it's good, directing is easy."
--Paul Thomas Anderson
the majority of films, which are mediocre to garbage tells a different tale
The "ends with" is the key bit here. No complete decimation of the original script by a series of whimsical, capricious editing decisions of producers
“Also, here’s Licorice Pizza”
Daniel Day-Lewis is made up of 99 percent charm, eloquence, and charisma. The other 1 percent is what allows him to present himself as a human
I wouldn’t call him eloquent, but he is likeable
@@DarranKern He is very eloquent
This comes off incredibly absurd
You don't really appreciate the depth of Day-Lewis's abilities until you catch a better glimpse of his true persona as we do here and realize what an incredible departure these characters are.
And THAT is the key to understanding what an incredible actor he is compared to other actors. Other actors turn in incredible performances but very few of them actually become different people entirely. When D-L plays a character, there isn’t a shred of this guy we’re seeing here in his characters. Same thing went in My Left Foot and Gangs of NY. In GONY he was much more frightening and chilling but in this one his character is even larger - there are few moments where he’s not in a scene.
@@tommyt1971 Joel Edgerton is another actor who completely transforms.
I can’t say I required that secondary confirmation
Just watched this film for the first time, i can't see Daniel Plainview in this man. What a great performance.
"Draaaaainage Eli boy.... draaaaainage"
I DRINK your milkshake!
Best actor on the planet and its not even close.
Devon Ambrose living or in general? Living? Most likely yes. As a whole? Can’t agree.
@@Dravianpn02 what? ......... you should check steven segal man!!!!
@@itsme8700 You absolutely have to be joking right?
100% joking : D
Nope, there's Gary Oldman. Even in the worst movies he's been in, he's still amazing.
Those fuckin' eyes, man. He has that thousand-yard stare. Such an interesting guy, and no doubt the greatest actor of his generation. Between the acting and Jonny Greenwood's soundtrack, this is one of the greatest movies ever made.
same with Cillian Murphy
This movie is still so stunning on every level. The film has always been a source of inspiration for me!
King Nothing greed inspires people
King. To work hard and make millions. Everyone’s dream. Not everyone makes it but, there is always a chance if you’re dedicated enough,
Agreed Tim lol just watched it ol buddy. It’s a masterpiece!
@@millionminimagicmice cinematography at its best
Inspired by a ruthless oil tycoon's power and greed?
When I first saw this movie, I honestly felt I was watching the best acting I'd ever seen. It was riveting and unsettling and simply flawless.
Love how you expressed this here. I was the same, it felt so raw and at times I was uncomfortable because of it
And 10 years later, these two great men work together again on 'Phantom Thread' ♥
The comment Paul makes toward the end about having a well written script and having his act together before going to DDL with TWBB, gives Phantom Tread a certain level of intrigue for me.
Just saw Phantom Thread. Outstanding work from these two, as expected.
Power couple🖤
@@Valmont1978 aw bless your simple mind.
Effectively ending Day-Lewis's career.
I my personal opinion, Daniel Day Lewis is truly the greatest actor in the history of cinema.
Agreed
Agreed
No doubt
I can't believe this movie is 10 years old
Doesn't matter because it's so damn good it's timeless.
Same here i bought it the day it came out on DVD..smh the year BLU RAY came out
This movie will be like Casablanca in 30 years
Yeah, it doesn't seem that old, like Gangs of New York. I can't believe it came out nearly two decades ago. Feels like seven years or so.
13*
Daniel Day Lewis is one of the greatest to ever do it. An absolute genius.
He needs to come out of retirement! We need him now more than ever lol
I would say he is the greatest actor of all time. Just my opinion.
@@William.H.Bonney But he is the greatest one! on the other hand i can understand if some people think that the greatest is Robert DeNiro, Al Pacico, Marlon Brando... but in my opinion Day Lewis is above of them.
@@adidaslee I agree with your comment.
how do you know that this isnt a performance? this very clip?
DDL could play the role of a hot dog and it would be cinema gold.
Our kids will look at it as a classic and inspiration for their generation of movie makers.
I couldn't sit through this "movie".
The music was out of place. The show moved way to slow for such a small finale. I just don't get why people like bad movies (I.E. Inception).
Boe Smith You're an actual fucking moron
Boe Smith Not enough car crash scenes huh.
small finale? lol
@@thirtysilver33 lol I don't get why people have such bad taste
Two artists at the top of their craft.
It's fascinating to watch the silent interaction of these two during the interview..sort of like an inside joke between them.
Yeah they kept thinking "Charlie doesn't really get what we're saying"
Paul Thomas Anderson is a good looking man
@@chaotemagick3 nah they were thinking “ they don’t know we kissed on set “
Cuz charlie rose is kinda a weirdo.
His voice is so calm and gentle, I love that his character is so explosive and he uses all the internal passion.
Welp I see why DDL is seen as one of the best actors of all time. Nothing about his mannerisms seem familiar. I'm looking at the actor behind the character for the first time and it's like I've never seen the man.
Yeah because you've literally never seen the man as he actually is
@@huskiehuskerson5300 I don't think you got the point
My god Daniel Day-Lewis speaks like a true artist.
After watching There Will Be Blood for the first time 15 years after it was released. The intensity Daniel portrays is astounding. It's refreshing to see him relax and smile....
I worked in a hotel in Ireland and in walks this man with a top hat low and behold it was daniel years before Lincoln he was encompassing the character even then..🇮🇪
I love how he kept looking to Paul, as if he was looking for assurance that he was speaking of the main ideas of the story correctly. Dude totally admires paul as well. Both seem like great dudes.
Well Paul did the groundwork
@@huskiehuskerson5300 Well yeah no doubt, just pointing out an observation. Shows how much Daniel cares and respects
I think it’s a gesture toward being inclusive and engaged.
Did anyone noticed the sensual glances PTA and DDL gave each other? They have such profound respect for each other and love working together so much that there is some strong intimacy between the two. Must be pure respect to work with a master of their craft.
It feels like so many people who work with PTA have that with him. Aside from the crew he works with often, there are so many actors who repeatedly work with him and talk about how much they love work with him I'd love to be a fly on the wall on one of his sets and see how they work that seem to make them such great experiences.
Yes! Especially PTA towards DDL. Incredible.
I think it’s more of a knowing glance that comes from having each other’s back through an experience. I think they also have a sense of humor when Charlie gets a little too dramatic. They like taking the piss out of things.
@@fuckballs8808 Undoubtedly, agree with your sentiment/theme/intent of where you were (hopefully?) going with this. Incorrect word choice, if so. If not, you couldn't be more off the mark.
@@jonathanb1406 ...to work with them, there's the rub indeed. Fly on the wall not enough with these two. Must/will get opp. to witness/contribute to their "dance" in any fashion.👍
"I drink your milkshake!"
DRAAAAAAINAAGE
Jeff Lebowski donny youre out of your element the chinaman is not the issue here!
I found that scene really silly. That he sold that at all is a testament to hos ability and talent.
I abandoned my chiiiiiiiillllddddddd
Felix completely different scene but ok
Watching this I can see Paul’s respect for Daniel, even as they are both the best in their own profession you can see that Paul is one of Daniel’s biggest fans and treats him like a powerful presence. Meanwhile, Daniel is a gentle soul to all of those around him, which adds to the power that he has as an actor.
I find PTA very cute. There is also this childish calm wisdom about him
ravishingravi What I like about Paul is that he’s a deep guy who laughs at the depth.
He's a beautiful man, he literally is
1:38 "That's the holy grail if you can get to it". The humility with which Daniel Day Lewis receives this massive compliment from Paul Anderson is another tip on how humble this monumental actor is. Oscars aside, Day Lewis is in the Mount Rushmore of cinema history.
2007. What a year for film: There Will Be Blood, The Assassination of Jesse James, No Country For Old Men, Zodiac, Hot Fuzz.... so many modern classics.
Insane year for video games as well: Halo 3, COD 4, Assassin's Creed 1, Portal, Bioshock, Mass Effect...
And Goodbye Solo
One of the greatest ever performances by an actor on film.
Also "In the Name of the Father"!!! Another great film which was the prequel to "The Boxer". It's all about Belfast, the IRA, the British prison system, & based on a very true story. A truly remarkable & great film.
A man who was so committed to the craft that he made it toxic for himself and had to walk away to save his soul. It’s astonishing.
Best Comment. On point.
I can't believe this movie is already thirteen years old. Great movie.
I can’t believe this comment is already two years old. Great Comment.
@@herbg4866 I can’t believe this comment is already 7 months old. Great comment.
@@sgt.barnes9440 I can't believe this comment is already 5 days old. Great comment.
Probably the greatest movie of all time, best actor and flawless direction, score and editing. DDL scared the crap outta me, so real
I wouldn’t have agreed when I was younger but I rewatched it recently and wow. Such an amazing movie. And his performance is unbelievably great.
There's not been a movie that has topped it from Hollywood before then L.A. Confidential did it for me and Heat before then.
This interviewer actually asks questions based on an actors craft. Not something you see much of these days.
Julie F that’s false
Shame he’s a groper
@@georgemilo7649 didn't know that but I'm not surprised. He came across as a creep in the Obama/ Romney debate
Seems like a senile and ostentatious creep to me
@@wetigaz he was one of the greatest interviewers. Unfortunately he’s a creep
Lewis is one of the greatest artists ever to live on this earth. Incredible talent
It’s scary how good he is 😧
Watched TWBB probably 10x now since it's release and it still blows my mind
Absolute masterpiece. DDL's performance is still the greatest I've ever seen in a screenplay
I have it on TV while I'm watching this.
My mouth was open in awe, either horror, sadness, disgust, and just wanting to know how it ends, and mouth open at the end also, like ...NO... I need to watch that again, did I just see that? Most mesmerizing, haunting music, aww, mmmm, just never felt that way about a movie before, until I seen Tom Hardy in Revenance, then he sparked it again, Daniel Day and Tom Hardy bring out such emotions and thoughts in their actions.....it's a true gift. Thank you sirs!
Daniel takes acting to a whole new level that I wish more actors would have the guts to travel to. You can tell even Paul Thomas is almost scared when hearing him talk about his characters, almost like hes somehow aware of how personal and dangerous it is for Daniel to take on such a character. Love it. Makes me wish I could land an acting job lol.
We all know that the director and actor are phenomenal in their craft.. but my god this interviewer has passion! Well done!
uhhh it’s charlie rose ahahha he’s a goat in his own right
I feel like I have been mindlessly scrolling through youtube for something to watch for months, and finally this pops up for no reason in my feed.
An outstanding movie took me into the world they pictured. His performance was jaw breaking.
Really appreciate this interviewer.
Rose is great. He got fukked by the meetoo shitshow
@@jonnyqwstwhat’s his name??
Definitely one of my all time favorite movies. Incredibly written and Daniel was that character in every aspect.
Daniel Day Lewis and Joaquin Phoenix in one movie with PTA as a director would be a dream come true.
NoX# That would be something. I heard originally Paul wanted Joaquin as Eli. He wanted to work with Joaquin for a while before the Master. Since DDL and Joaquin will probably never happen, Joaquin and Phil Hoffman was probably as good a twosome in a movie ever.
Brendan Taylor one can only hope DDL comes back for PTA’s last film. Still a lot of time for that to happen, but a man can dream...
@@brendantaylor3570 Well... You never know. Everybody thought Al Pacino will never work with Martin Scorsese but he did in The Irishman finally. I know DDL supposedly retired because he confirmed it himself that this would be definitely his last role in Phantom Thread but if PTA or any other director comes up with some great idea or story then he might comeback again.
A little late for this but, Paul Dano is also an extraordinary actor, the chemistry between him and DDL was so good that I can’t imagine Phoenix in exchange.
Boy that would be out of this world..
This movie is so good, so powerful, but you feel like you've been hit in the gut. It is so powerful as a story and the amazing acting.
It’s definitely a bold statement, and obviously everyone has their own opinion(s), but I sincerely believe that Daniel Day-Lewis might be the greatest actor of all time.
He’s 100% the greatest “chameleon”, so to speak.
This is the greatest movie of all time, propelled to the top of the list by Daniel Day-Lewis' absolutely flawless, moving, industry standardizing performance as Daniel Plainview. There aren't enough words in my vocabulary for me to emphasize just how amazing it is.
I love 90% of this movie, but respectfully, there are parts of the story and editing that make me cringe. If you want my humble take, reply back. I'd like your opinion.
I wouldn’t say greatest. I’d say SevenSamurai, Ran, Metropolis or The Human Condition would be the greatest. However, this is definitely one of the best.
It my favorite movie ever made.
@@moto9492 The cinematography is breathtaking.
@@moto9492 Can you tell about the 10% you didn't like?
This guy is incredible for how he played this character. Daniel you are one of the best actors ever and this role was something to prove it.
I could listen to Daniel Day-Lewis talk shop for days.
I absolutely love this film. Masterpiece
This interview is such a gift.
Lewis plays the most iconic americana figures possible i had no idea he was english. what an absolute gem of an artist.
He’s irish
I love authentic people and Daniel is one of them. One of the best actors of our time
the most beautiful thing about daniel as a human being is his eye's communication with Paul when he speaks humbly about his tremendous effort and preparation for the role
I’m in love with the writing of this piece. Brilliant. Lasting. Impacting thought.
at 21:08 or so: "Eli knows"...he totally turns back into Daniel Plainview for a sec, with all that loathing for Eli still revving haha
Yes but just an observer I disliked Eli too just after the baptism when his little sister Mary comes to comfort Daniel and he's protected her from her Father too was extremely touching imo some understanding between those two as she doesn't seem to much like her Family either then later marries H.W. she's an understated but important character imo.
One of the most amazing performances in cinema . Amazing movie .
2022 I came to this video because the Oscars will never be the same without Sir Daniel Day-Lewis. Will Smith winning his Oscar and slapping the other guy was a show of how low is the level now. I miss this super talented, gorgeous, humble man. No one like him anymore.
Brilliant film. Great interview. Watched Rose religiously as a kid. Siskel & Ebert as well. Regardless of his shortcomings, he was the best at his craft.
The greatest, and my favorite, actor in the world. I saw Last of the Mohicans when i was 8 and was hooked immediately. I will never forget that. And There Will Be Blood was an insanely great movie. One of his best performances. People that do not like this movie just don't appreciate superb acting. He become's the character he's playing so well it's as if he's not "acting" at all.
fatheremmons85 i saw The Last of the Mohicans at a young age. Amazing amazing movie, but There will be blood is somethong else. idk though both movies arw great in their own way
You had me until the penultimate sentence. Google subjectivity.
Kit Palmer Actually, there’s a thing as an objectively good movie. Good filmmaking isnt subjective. Good production design, cinematography, acting, directing, editing, screenwriting, etc. are all objective. There Will Be Blood is an objectively good film. You might or might not like it, and thats where subjectivity comes into place, but you cant say its a bad film because you dont like it, because its one of the best films of the century
Yes, but a movie needs more than a real person who becomes someone else entirely. Obviously he's fantastic, but the movie is a bit of a slog. LotM is easily in my top 3 of all time though.
We were very lucky for that movie to be made. I rate it as a true classic. Comparable to peak Kubrick. Can't think of a better film this century so far.
Alex Capwell watch bary Lyndon. I had the same feeling watching that film as I did this one
@Alex Capwell Paths of Glory is pretty dope.
@Alex Capwell That's a minority opinion
That movie was well beyond its time. A classic to be sure. There will be blood is also a classic
I’d put Anderson’s film the Master up there alongside it.
This is Daniel day Lewis most powerful roll! The intensity and drive of the main character was riveting throughout the movie! Powerful, dark and beautiful film!
I think about this film almost everyday since 2007.
I wish I get the chance to see this masterpiece in a nice cinema some day. Only watched it a number of times on the TV. I just want to be totally immersed in this experience
It’s interesting how after every job DDL changes his appearance completely.
Dabo Swinny I bet it’s a way of starting anew, shedding the skin of his character so to speak.
@@brendantaylor3570 that's the poetic reason we the audience would like to believe
Huskie Huskerson True. Could just be vanity haha
Daniel is such a genius of an actor that my brain finds it hard to comprehend that this is the same man in the movie.
wow, you can see he really lives the character. 21:44 "he started it!", brilliant
Best actor ever!
I watched it for the first time 2 days ago. Fantastic !
I just watched Gangs of New York for the first time. Didn't know about this man before hand. Wow. This guy puts most actors to shame. Incredible. 😮
Some of the best acting I have ever seen in my life
Watching There Will Be Blood for the first time opening day.. at 10 AM in the morning almost by myself.. I think there was a handful of other people in the theater... and looking back I kind of wish I would have talked to them afterwards to get their take on it.... i was absolutely blown away. It's such a beautifully made film. Daniel is amazing, no question but it's Paul's best work. He's the star in a major way. It's the kind of work that instantly ALMOST put him on the same level as Kubrick. I don't think ANYONE is really on the same level as Kubrick, but Paul came VERY close. Paul should have won Best Director and the movie should have won Best Picture at the Oscars.
Erik Ghast I always find a strong correlation between Anderson and Kubrick. But I can never put my finger on it. I think a lot of it has to do with the cinematography and how psyche-driven the themes and stories are. What else though? I’d love to hear your take.
@@Fafafohi well the obvious connection is with this film and 2001. both have extended opening sequences based almost entirely on imagery instead of dialogue
As opposed to 10AM at night 😂
I remember watching this when it came out in pure wonder... How is this so good and why? It's weird, awkward almost. This dude has to be by far the best actor of our time. This movie only got better as time went on.
Damn such eloquent speech .. I'm glad I watched this
Phantom thread is their masterpiece - perfect! 3 geniuses in one room here, these guys are the bees knees (!!!)
Great movie.had me in a trance,the acting was so good.seems like D,D.is more like that character then any I’ve seen
The amazing Daniel Day- Lewis!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Didn't plan on it, but couldn't stop watching.
Fascinating.
Love There Will be Blood.
I loved the speeches "I'm FIXED like no one else in this business because I have a string of tools.... ready to be put to work" "I traveled over half this state to be with your here tonight" "I do my OWN drilling... and the men who work for me, work for me, and they are men I know" "I don't loose my tools in the hole... and allow water in the hole to ruin the whole lease".
Paul: Can I sit down
Daniel Plainview: Pleeeeeese
And the stringed instruments are tremendous. Percussion too. That cacophonic oil strike with HW becoming deafened was great music. It made that scene and others come to life.
His questions are unbelievable. It can be overlooked, but he's not pandering, and he controls a rhythm of his own.
This movie was great. I watched it several times. It is dark a and brutal story. They somehow made it brutal without gratuitous violence.
Daniel Day Lewis nailed his part. His character was narcissistic, violent, obsessive, and a sociopath. The movie and the acting was a masterpiece.
Daniel-Day speaks like a true artist. Mentioning how the work becomes an end in itself. And the way he laughs at the word perfection. That nearly half-mad laugh. Because perfection is something that has, and will continue to destroy, countless artists. And if it doesn't. It certainly makes the heights of an artist's work far lower than they otherwise would have been. Schiller would have gotten along well with these two.
I still find it amazing how immersed in the characters he got, when you hear him speak here, and compare it to Daniel plainview, you can tell he literally created a different person
Daniel Day-Lewis: Greatest actor on the planet, by far.
I didn't like this movie the first time I watched it, but I usually revisit it 2-3 times a year and every watch, I end up appreciating it more than the previous viewing. I really think it's maybe the best movie ever made.
There will be blood will always be in my heart...what a charming quiet tragic film
I LOVE how Rose notes that both the preacher and oil man are a mirror image of each other... and Daniel's face is very against that notion... then you see him start to realize there is a grain of truth in that... and how hard it is for Daniel to admit... and watching Paul Thomas Anderson's enjoyment of the moment. =)
What Daniel did in that movie, is a master piece!! Gold
There are good actors. There are great actors. There are truly gifted actors.
Then there's DDL. Nobody touches him. Not even close.
The only actor in his level is Joaquin Pheonix. THEY COMPLETELY morph into their characters and it is so believable.
Long live Daniel Day Lewis. An awesome actor.
No, Daniel Plainview is a real person and Daniel Day Lewis is someone else ! That's how incredible of an acting job he does ! Absolutely Incredible !!
The way they communicate and the way they elaborate what’s going on in their minds absolutely fascinates me...
Great interview, they have a nice vibe between them and Charlie seems to really evoke certain ideas and feelings from both.
I watched this movie recently on TCM (I had watched it years ago when was first released on home video). Such a powerful piece of cinema ! I can't say I quite understand why Daniel Plainfield acts the way he does but who can resist being blown away by the power of Daniel Day Lewis' performance ? A true "force of nature". And of course the film is extremely well made (direction, script, music, photography, costuming, etc). I'm mostly intrigued by the VOICE of Daniel Plainview's character. It reminds me so much of the voice of the late great stage & screen actor Walter Huston. And of course Walter's son (famed director and sometime actor) John had a similar voice.
These are two men who are (were) at the pinnacle of their craft. Awe inspiring creation and performance.
Little did we realize then that Paul Dano was also just beginning to demonstrate his acting genius.
It's adorable how Charlie Rose asks such goofy questions and PTA with Daniel-Day Lewis smirk at each other and then try to redeem his questions :D
