Phantom Thread (70mm)
Opens Friday, January 12
2hr 10mins // directed by:Paul Thomas Anderson // featuring:Daniel Day-Lewis, Vicky Krieps, Lesley Manville // assisted listening // 70mm
Set in the glamour of 1950’s post-war London, renowned dressmaker Reynolds Woodcock (Daniel Day-Lewis) and his sister Cyril (Lesley Manville) are at the center of British fashion, dressing royalty, movie stars, heiresses, socialites, debutants and dames with the distinct style of The House of Woodcock.
Women come and go through Woodcock’s life, providing the confirmed bachelor with inspiration and companionship, until he comes across a young, strong-willed woman, Alma (Vicky Krieps), who soon becomes a fixture in his life as his muse and lover. Once controlled and planned, he finds his carefully tailored life disrupted by love.
With his latest film, Paul Thomas Anderson paints an illuminating portrait both of an artist on a creative journey, and the women who keep his world running. Phantom Thread is Paul Thomas Anderson’s eighth movie, and his second collaboration with Daniel Day-Lewis.
About Cinema in 70mm
70mm is a rarely shown high-resolution film format that is twice the size of the more common 35mm film, and far superior to standard digital projection. In order to show these special high quality film prints, we need to install a projector capable of showing them, and pay for an extra projectionist to run them. As a result, the cost of tickets for 70mm shows are increased from our regular pricing: $18.50 General Admission/ $15.50 Coolidge Members, Seniors & Children (no member comps, no matinee discount, and no $6 senior tickets on Wednesdays).
★★★★ "Anderson’s films were once ensemble examinations of family as lively organisms, but over the years the filmmaker has wedded his familial obsessions with a fulsome interiority. Over and over again, Anderson obsessively considers a trap that’s forged by a dysfunctional contrast between self and society, offering protagonists who wish to be alone yet are susceptible to loneliness anyway out of their incurable fealty to the human condition." — Chuck Bowen, Slant Magazine
CRITIC'S PICK "Phantom Thread is not as hermetic as The Master or as loosey-goosey as Inherent Vice. It’s a chamber piece, romantic and baroque in equal measure, with arresting harmonies and ravishing changes of tone. Like There Will Be Blood, it casts Mr. Day-Lewis as an avatar of obsession, driven this time by the pursuit of aesthetic perfection rather than money and power. But whereas Daniel Plainview in the earlier film was a vector of pure, demonic ambition, Reynolds Woodcock bemusedly discovers himself to be one leg of a complicated emotional triangle." — A.O. Scott, The New York Times
“I love ’em. I live by them. I live for them. They’re food and drink to me,” — Paul Thomas Anderson on relationship dramas in an interview with the Boston Globe
