  • I think if Stanley Kubrick were still alive he would have loved the hell out of this movie.

  • I don't like to judge art based on drug consumption but in this case I think we can draw a parallel between P.T. Anderson and Martin Scorsese, who was a total cokehead up until Raging Bull, in which he sobered up to make his masterpiece. Perhaps the same can be said for There Will Be Blood which I think is PTA's masterpiece.

    there is no reason to believe (and absolutely not as confidently as you seem to) he's a coke in this interview. acting like you've done cock before does not excuse you from having to make sense or have proof. you don't have to have done coke before to see that he looks normal. but thank you for handing down your unknowable wisdom to the poor sober people who aren't a part of your secret club of knowledge, observations, and godlike insights.

  • @TulseLuper I get the impression you've never done coke. That's fine, I'm not judging you. It's clear by his mannerisms that he is doing it at the time of this interview & the interview w/Charlie Rose. He probably will quit in the future. Nevertheless, he's creating some incredible work. They are epic films that will go down in history.

  • maybe this guy should interview daniel day lewis

  • @DrunkyMcLushLives I JUST FINISH WATCHING RIGHT NOW AND THOUGHT THE SAME THING!!!!

  • Although I think that There Will Be Blood could well be PTA's masterpiece, lets not forget that the guy is only 40. He's really quite young compared to many other directors.. I guess that I hope that TWBB is not his masterpiece as I want to see him make many more compelling, wonderful films, as he has done over the past few years.

  • @TulseLuper I don’t agree with you. Magnolia is his masterpiece. He, himself said it about Magnolia: “I don’t think I’ll ever be able to do a better movie."

  • @bobb328 Umm please let me have it :)

  • @bobb328 dude can you email that to me?

  • @peteagassi Understandable. It's one of those films for more seasoned film-lovers and filmmakers.

  • @DrunkyMcLushLives Most boring movie I've ever seen.
