Phantom Thread's reviews
Media reviews
Indiewire
"The director crafts an absorbing period piece seemingly focused on the obsessions of a successful man, but it's really about his opposite".
The Guardian
"There is such pure delicious pleasure in this film, in its strangeness, its vehemence, its flourishes of absurdity, carried off with superb elegance".
The Playlist
"You?ll Want To Live Inside Paul Thomas Anderson?s Masterful Film".
The Hollywood Reporter
"More unconventional and downright weird on a moment-to-moment basis than it is in overall design and intent, it's a singular work played out mostly in small rooms that harks back to psychological melodramas of the 1940s/50s but hits stylistic notes entirely its own".
The Telegraph
"The odd scenarios keep coming, fast and thick. Phantom Thread is built along the theoretically familiar lines of gothic romance ? if you had to pick a predecessor, it would probably be Hitchcock?s Rebecca ? but it?s very hard in the moment to work out where on earth it?s going, or even how conventionally romantic Reynolds and Alma?s relationship actually is".
The Wrap
"The disruptive love between a British designer and his young muse is explored with sophistication and humor in PTA?s latest masterpiece".
Screen Crush
"It?s worth considering what writer/director Paul Thomas Anderson and star Daniel Day-Lewis may have tucked away below the surface of Phantom Thread, their fascinating new film".
