Music in the Round: There Will Be Blood

15

Silver miner Daniel Plainview (Daniel Day-Lewis) leads a hardscrabble life with his son, H.W. (Dillon Freasier). When he hears about oil oozing from the ground near the Western town of Little Boston, Daniel takes his son on a mission to find their fortune. Daniel makes his lucky strike and becomes a self-made tycoon but, as his fortune grows, he deviates into moral bankruptcy.

From director Paul Thomas Anderson (One Battle After Another), There Will Be Blood is often regarded as the greatest American epic of the 21st century.
