"Daniel Day-Lewis is a shoo-in for an Oscar nomination for his performance as an unscrupulous prospector in Paul Thomas Anderson's adaptation of Upton Sinclair's 1927 novel Oil!" So writes Ruthe Stein in her preview of There Will Be Blood in the Sunday San Francisco Chronicle special holiday movie section. "Day-Lewis is in almost every scene, and he shows how ambition can destroy as well as nurture," she reports. "He's scary. Paul Dano (Little Miss Sunshine) is frightful in another way as a fire-breathing preacher and would-be healer."
