Daniel Daniel Daniel
The talent. The bone structure. The intelligence. The ability to make shoes by hand. Daniel Day Lewis: The perfectionist in The Daily Telegraph. “I don’t rehearse if I can help it. In talking a character through, you define it. And if you define it, you kill it dead.”
Remember this scene from The Last of The Mohicans?
Cora (Madeleine Stowe): What are you looking at, Sir?
Hawkeye (DDL): I’m looking at you, Miss.
All the women at the cinema pass out.
I cannot wait to see There Will Be Blood, I don’t care if he plays a greedy corrupt oilman. Loved him as Bill the Butcher. And I actually rented the laser disc of Eversmile, New Jersey, in which he played a motorcycling dentist in Patagonia. It sounds funny. It wasn’t.

There’s an article about Daniel and his new film in Empire, I’d like to send you a copy as a thank you for helping me get through my adoloscent years.
