Is that the real title? My ticket stub said "Be Blood & Oil" and I didn't understand it.

Well, it was based on the book OIL! right?

maybe at one point it was gonna be named There Will Be Blood and Oil?

I get to see this movie this weekend and I'm stoked.

Fun Fact -- Jonny Greenwood did the soundtrack.

Isn't he in Radiohead?

Yes, yes he is.

Don't want to burst your bubble, but I too went into the movie excited to hear the soundtrack because of Senor Verdewood, and I wasn't that impressed. It certainly wasn't bad, and I guess it fit the motif in the trailer, which is what got me excited about it to begin with, but I don't think it fully translated into 2 hours and 38 minutes worth of film. Or at least my expectations were too high for "just" a soundtrack.

The fact he is a nut job probably does not help.

Examples Szila, examples!

An example, apparently he stays in character for the duration of the movies shoot. A few weeks of a dude acting like a turn of the century Oil prospector, I could see it being fairly creepy and distracting for everyone else on the set.

If true, Gangs of New York must have been interesting indeed...

My friend said that he heard through the grapevine that the kid who plays the pastor wasn't the first one cast; the first one left the film because he couldn't handle Danny boy and his method acting. If you've seen the movie, you know that there are some, shall we say, "intense" scenes that don't look like you'd really have to "act" a whole lot, just sorta...take it. And by take it, I mean not drown in the field of mud that Daniel Day-Lewis is dominating you in.

Good. See it in a theatre you cheap bastard.

theawddone · 01-18-2008, 11:06 AM

Is this ever going to get a wide release, or did I already miss it? I have never seen it listed at any local theaters.
