Daniel Day Louis got an oscar in this movie...and all BUT I found this movie

VERY slow and I almost fell asleep a couple of times..

Not the most exciting film.

DDL is a total money grubbing CApricorn-esque guy in the lowest form.

He is conniving, calculating and

This movie just pretty much made me yawn.

I won't lie, I was on edge for nearly the entire viewing. Awaiting his next move...and wondering who/what his next victim would be. I suspect this film was about raw human emotion/drive. I never read the book. It's called "Oil", right?

Was DDL's character gay? Just curious.

Superb acting across the board. I was specifically impressed with the kid from "Little Miss Sunshine". lol, loved the closing line too.

I like DDL, but this one was way too depressing and annoying. Most bad guys have something redeemable, his character had absolutely nothing.

I much liked him much better in *Gangs of New York* ..

My Aries seemed to like it. I was asleep on his lap and when it ended he shook me awake and told me it good but he kept nodding off too. LOL
