There Will Be Blood - Movie Clip, Summary, Trailer and Review

    Heres' a clip, trailer and my own summary and review of one of my favorite movies of all time about a man's ruthless rise to power in the oil industry in the early 1900's, starring Daniel Day Lewis (who won the academy award for best actor in this movie) and released in 2007.  The acting in this film is truly superb, and if this film teaches nothing else, then it teaches persistence, drive, focus, dedication, self motivation, determination, long term goal setting and vision.  Enjoy.

    Here's the original theatrical trailer:

    The story of this film follows the rise to power of Daniel Plainview, a ruthless oilman who works, along with his adopted son H.W., to expand his oil empire into the small town of Little Boston, California.  Tipped off as to the presence of oil in the small town from a twin brother named Paul Sunday, Daniel travels to the Sunday ranch in Little Boston where he manipulates the people of this small town into allowing him to buy up land and draw up up and sell the oil lying below. He soon begins to crush his competition and alienate the townsfolk, his friends, and even his adopted son H.W. in his drive to accumulate wealth. Based on the book "Oil!" by Upton Sinclair.
