amazing character study, daniel day-lewis blew it out of the water for me. the word greed takes on a whole new meaning. i would however like to nit pick a bit because while i was blown away by this film i don't think it was seamless or flawless as most people have said. i don't want to spoil it for anyone so i will keep my qualms to myself but if anyone who has seen it wants to dissect just hit me up
