As someone else said on the full-length post, one of your instinctive questions or hesitations isn't entirely off base. At the end, when Eli returns to Daniel, if there was any question whether or not Eli was an opportunist or a true believer, it would seem to be answered by his obvious glow-up (ala contemporary megachurch pastors with huge houses and private jets), and both his willingness to sell out and then ultimate desperation in order to cling to his power. It seems obvious that Daniel is not a religious man, but I think at least part of his resentment for Eli is also because he can tell Eli is a charlatan, a huckster, a con artist (something that only sticks in the knife further when Eli uses Daniel's real pain to humiliate him, in service of that con). With this in mind, there are people who theorize that it is not actually Paul who visits Daniel and pitches the land, but Eli posing as Paul, setting up what he thinks is an easy way to get his church founded and set himself on the path to that power and glory he wants, only to find that Daniel does not fall for the scam. Since we never see Paul and Eli together, we can never know what Paul's actual involvement in the whole saga is. I only glanced at those comments on the FL, so I don't know if anyone mentioned that Joel and Ethan Coen's No Country For Old Men and There Will Be Blood went head-to-head at the Oscars in 2008. Two incredible masterpieces from already-legendary filmmakers, with two incredible villains in Chigurh and Plainview. In the end, among the major trophies, No Country took home the lions' share of the prizes with Best Picture, Best Director, and Adapted Screenplay, but DDL took home the Best Actor trophy (of course, it probably helped that Bardem was nominated in supporting, which he won as well). Also, you've got great timing. DDL collaborated with PTA again after TWBB, after which he announced that he had decided to retire from acting. However, after seven years away from acting, he co-wrote and agreed to star in a film co-written and directed by his son, Ronan Day-Lewis, which Focus Features actually just dated this week for release in October.

I really wish you would actually react in the watchalongs … we want to know what you are thinking and feeling about the images and sounds you are reacting to…. It felt like I watched the movie by myself

I'm sorry this one disappointed you. Some movies make me talk way more than others do, some movies result in me being quieter, it's just how it is. This was a movie where I was on the quieter end. I'm not going to force out words just for the sake of it because I often get more complaints that I talk too much in my reactions, believe it or not. Appreciate you watching!
