“"There Will Be Blood is one that I adore. I think I saw it about four or five times in the theater. I just think Paul Thomas Anderson is a genius."”

Sarah Polley

Actor, Director

“I love There Will Be Blood. I feel like I can watch that movie any day, every day, and I can just fast-forward to any spot in the movie and be totally brought in.”

Jason Momoa

Actor

“There Will Be Blood would stand a better chance to be number one or number two on my list if it didn't have a big giant flaw in it. Daniel Day-Lewis is Muhammad Ali in that film — he doesn't need anything. The movie exists because of him.”
