Academy Conversations: Phantom Thread

[@OmarAlHashmi3]

This film was robbed at the Oscars. It was beautiful in every sense of the word. I think its about time they give Paul Thomas Anderson the award he deserves

[@dylandavies2635]

I agree that PTA is about as good a director as you'll find today, but I think it's incredibly disrespectful when people talk about he, or other guys like Leo, getting 'robbed' at the oscars. It just shows no appreciation for the fellow nominees and winner.

[@cactaceous]

The Oscars mean nothing. The work of PTA will be studied and examined in film classes and by film appreciators for decades to come. Some of the people who have statues will only have that statue, not longevity. Altman never won an Oscar. He did not need it. Kubrick never won an Oscar. Lynch has not won an Oscar. Their reputations and their influence has not been tarnished by some award.

[@TdF_101]

oscars are significant and historically important, but they ultimately don't decide what film become 'beloved' and studied. At best they can help smaller movies gain popularity, usually they give praise do 'goody-good' movies that make us feel warm and pat the industry on the back. This movie came out at the peak of toxic-masculinity talk and it hurt it a lot. But people who've seen the movie know it's all irrelevant, it's gorgeous, refined and it's a compelling story.

Vicky Krieps should've been nominated for best actress.

[@IVIargerineEclipse]

100% accurate

[@PS-jh3in]

Yes!

[@august6389]

I was really confused when I saw she wasn't

[@shotishoti9447]

*coughs* have you seen the nominees for Oscars 2018? with those powerful performances, her act in PT is not it, sorry

[@itswrongtokillanimalsifyou2837]

@@shotishoti9447 She is clearly better than most of the nominees, and I'd not shy away from arguing for her being the best of the lot. Better still was Lesley Manville. I always look for signs that actors are acting and rarely, if ever, have I had such a hard time finding signs that they are in fact not their characters. I can regrettably not say the same for most of the 2018 nominees, or actors in general. Is there a specific performance you could name with better acting chops than you thought Krieps had?

[@josephmorales652]

Jonny Greenwood really is the real deal. A rock god and an awesome film composer.

Thread: what a masterpiece for the director, the cimematography, set design wonderful. What can u say about Day Lewis?: absolutely perfect. What an excellent film, i loved it.

[@ruukaoz]

The fight scene at the table, oh my god... Alma was so beautiful, and terrifying at the same time. Amazing beat that was.

[@guyquartermaine2685]

I completely agree with the last comment...this was a truly beautiful film. Quite aside from the emotional and psychological dynamics at play in the film - which are very real and fascinating - but every single shot of the film, every moment, is deeply pleasing, aesthetically. Not just surface beauty, though...deep and perfect - and all entirely in keeping with the truth of the story itself. I was so pleased and fascinated to hear that Viki felt all she could do in her circumstances as an actor was to rely on her instincts and be open - as that is exactly what was necessary. Daniel's performance was heavy (in a brilliant way), highly wrought, and circuitous, and Vikki's was instinctive, innocent and pure - and the qualities of those two performances produced something really very special. Wonderful, wonderful film. I 🫡 you, Thomas, and all those involved in this film.
