peeps, stop arguing about DDL's best perf, he rocked each & every character he played, i'm actually surprised no one has mentioned "The age of innocence", stunning film & Daniel's perf.. just phenomenal, as usual.
This man is the prime example that, as despicable and idiotic people can be, we r capable of sincere class, genuine elegance and display a gentleness through words ...God Bless, Daniel
@SFGal9 Well said. He is absolutely beautiful yet very masculine. So well spoken, I could listen to his voice for hours and hours. He seems like such a gentleman.
Simply the best actor I've ever seen. Actors of his generation always talk about first seeing Marlon Brando and how he changed acting. Daniel Day Lewis did that for me. There Will Be Blood is just the finest piece of acting, and I didn't think Bill The Butcher could be topped.
DDL is so honest in every way... he takes you home. I completely understand him. So humble and so deep. He is my favorite actor since I was in my 20s. I'm so glad he decided to do quality films that I can enjoy.
@Tulkastaldo There is no similarity in those roles except for the moustache. Bill the Butcher was a lot more charismatic and openly expressive while Daniel Plainview was more brooding and bitter. Through DDL's performance you could see that Bill loved who he was while Plainview pitied himself. They just happen to both be violent men.
Yeah, as great as he was in the strange story There Will Be Blood, I don't think I will ever be as blown away more by another actor after seeing Danny in Gangs of New York. He was tough, crude, scary, violent, unpredictable and awesome. He was more magnetic to the screen than any actor I've seen.
@MovieHound17 To be fair, I caught the second half of There Will Be Blood on TV, and I plan to see Gangs of New York one of these days (I've alredy seen over half of Scorsese's catalogue). Anyhow, it's one of like 40 films I plan to download and watch, but I've only got room on my computer to download 2 or 3 at a time, you know how it is. I've seen "Nine" recently, though, and once again DDL blows the mind.
Ok. Sorry. I was rude and I felt compfertable being rude because of the fact that I was talking to you through the internet. But I do disagree with you about Bill the Butcher and Daniel Plainview being the same. I think most people would. By the way, I totally am an elitist fool. Disregard everything I say.
@Tulkastaldo Both characters being violent doesn't mean it's the same performance . Max Cady and Travis Bickle (Robert De Niro) were both violent men does that mean it was the same performance? And the moustache? Come on be real. Are you saying that his moustache played a part in winning the oscar?
i understand your point. The accent was slightly different, but the tone of voice, atmosphere were similar to those both characters. But perhaps there's much more to it than what we observe.
@CobainLennon8094 Same here man, I didn't really even believe in acting before him. I had always credited interesting characters to good writing, but now there is only Daniel Day.
@Tulkastaldo Its not the same accent. Bill had an antiquated new york accent; Plainview had an accent based somewhat on John Huston's. There is also a different cadence to his voice. In both films, he uses a bit of a rasp but DDL's soft clear voice wouldn't have worked for these roles. Plus, his refined face doesn't look so vicious without a mustache. The characters may be part of the same genre of characters, but they are no more similar than any of Hoffman's or DenIro's.

impossibly elegantly a beautiful yet masculine a man, who is intellectual, intelligent, down-to-earth, sexy and gifted. marry me, dear Daniel.
You can tell that he could easily be a writer by the way he describes everything in great detail and vividness.
For someone whose played so many serious characters, hes got a fantastic sense of humour. Would love to see him in a comedy at some point.
ruclips.net/video/5uBVWH6onvE/видео.html Stars and Bars is delightful!!!
He’s not only one of a kind actor, but also a natural-born storyteller, funny and eloquent.
"oh by the way I never did sleep in the jail"
that smile! that smile at the end is to die for!
I find Daniel sensational as an actor and as a person! I love him and everything he does.

what an authentic person i'm just in love right now
@SFGal9 Well said. He is absolutely beautiful yet very masculine. So well spoken, I could listen to his voice for hours and hours. He seems like such a gentleman.
he has a great way of describing things. he should write a book...
The 4 thumbs down are by directors he chose not to work with.
Michelle Cini if I clicked on the thumbs down to become the fifth to do so. Would I ever become one of those directors that he hates? Lol
He has inspired me to become an actress. I love this man. Great interview.
great interview I could listen to Daniel anytime great actor good job

Literally the BEST interview ive seen ahahahaha
I love him saying "just a ragamuffin". Awesome word. I want him to just say that non stop.
I'd love to hear him do an audiobook, reading one of the Narnia books or something like that.
Far better than DeNiro, I opine. Melts into the characters a bit more whereas DeNiro is always DeNiro.
who the FUCK had the audacity to dare dislike the Lord!?
he's so funny :-)))
should do a comedy someday
I love his smile at the end of the video.

He really is a awesome actor, he really seems like a nice guy that is soft spoken, would be fun to hang out with him I bet.
👏👏👏🥰🥰🥰
Put 'Daniel Day-Lewis - 'Movies 101' Part 1' & 'Daniel Day-Lewis - 'Movies 101' Part 2' into the search bar.
Simples.
Magnifico! È eloquente, spiritoso, gentile senza falsità, è una meraviglia in tutti i sensi❤

Who are the four eegits that gave a thumbs down review,
I.....will follow you down.
They're starved of it? Stars of it? What does he mean at 0:44?

@wc470 Yes!!!! But he wont because James Lipton will expose him in an uncomfortable way ya know? It sucks...
it would be nice, but it would be no better than this and here we're spared Lipton's grotesque sycophantic introduction
@mussman717word how was nine cause im NOT a fan of musicals but ddl is in it...still on the fence!!
@wc470 but you gotta admit this interview has more material than that show, still he should go on both.
@mussman717word go se gangs of new york right away then u wont be able to only watch half of it!
too late he already is.
@wc470 I don't. The interviewer on that is one of the worst I've ever seen.
With Adam Sandler and Rob Scheinder,The Man has too much class.
I wish Inside the actors studio was this long and this un-edited
great post, whoever you are you need to do more of this.
He mentioned "A Place In The Sun" :D. I love that film
@MegaTreeBark Apparently its the guys from the RSC lol
@wc470 Noooooooo. He is too good for it.
@dovestones James Lipton?! Really?
He's such a great actor, I regret seeing only one of his movies, and only half of it -- There Will Be Blood.
he probably will soon
Best friends?
