Paul Thomas Anderson's The Master



While the Great Gatsby remake has been causing a ton of buzz, my eyes have been firmly set on Paul Thomas Anderson's intriguing new film, 'The Master.' For those of you unfamiliar with his work, he's directed some classics including Boogie Nights, Magnolia, Punch Drunk Love and his fantastic Daniel Day Lewis driven period piece, There Will Be Blood.

The plot centers around a charismatic, intellectual man running a faith organization/cult known as 'The Master,' and a young drifter who crosses his path. The choice of using analog cameras was an awesome choice in my opinion, giving the movie that vintage look to match the era. And just like In There Will Be Blood, it looks like the excellent, foreboding musical compositions of Jonathan Greenwood will make a triumphant return. Looking forward to October.
