Finally, we sink our teeth into Phantom Thread, Paul Thomas Anderson's highly-anticipated romantic period drama. The performances, aesthetics, direction and so much more are simply enthralling and give us much to discuss. We consider Daniel Day-Lewis's style and how likeable he is in this, Anderson's mastery of tone and ability to lighten with unexpected humour what could be a rather dry film, the beauty of his cinematography, the range of female characters and some aspects of their portrayal, the way in which the work of an artist is depicted, and more. Jose is simply beside himself with the film's beauty, and Mike questions its flirtations with cliché so often that he becomes a cliché himself.

It's clear that there's more to discover than one viewing can reveal, so we look forward to seeing the film again and talking on it more.

Recorded on 7th February 2018.
