Title: Tedious, obscure - or both?
Review: To answer the question posed in the title of my review - BOTH!Daniel Day-Lewis turns in a powerful performance, but his character is not a person the viewer can identify with - which is fine, or would be if there were a sympathetic character in the film to offset his greedy, steely-eyed oil man.The movie confused me initially by leading me to believe that it was set in Texas - the landscape certainly bears no resemblance to the Southern California oil country - and its opening quarter hour with little or no dialogue was off-putting.Bleak, depressing, tedious - and deliberately obscure: not characteristics I look for in a film.
