Phantom Thread - This film will be remembered as a classic over and above the classics

Masterfully and entirely novelly Written and directed by P.T. Anderson, this film is absolutely great in every respect. Run the credits. It all bends sharply toward cinematic perfection. DD Lewis, and Vicky Kreips are hynotic. Eleven out of ten, so where's it been for the last seven years? I never understand this temporal gap between the release of great art to the public and my cognition of its exitence. I have a very strong hunch that it has something to do with the marketplace. No problem.

Both her mother and her aunt had, in her words, very capable hands. She allowded that she unfortunately did not. In her days of dry land fish and dress makers, she looked like that girl in the picture in my Grandmother's front room. The rural Greene County topography was safe harbour for her ancestors, so later on down the line it bounded the lovely girl, who looked like the one in the picture in the front room at my Grandmother's house. On September 4 we went on an adventure. Time of our lives.
