>>218211550but he's not your real son Daniel...... and you never fornicate so there's no chance of you ever having a real son.
>oilman Capeshit
>>218211629>A BASTARD FROM A BASKET
>>218211550>and after this ladies and gentlemen I say we get liquored up and take him to the peach tree dance
>you look like a NIGGER don't you Tilford?What the fuck were they thinking with this scene???
>>218211759Haha yea...please don't kill me
>>218211804tilford was lucky there werent any bowling pins within reach damn
>>218211550Is it the most overrated movie of the last 25 years?
hi there
>>218211550I am the oil man my oil is delicious
Where's the mother?
Why doesn't Daniel get a wife?He could have had his own son, his own children.
>>218211939nah. its pretty good>this was appalling and won the oscar for best movieits not even the best movie called crash.
HEY DANIELIT LOOKS TO ME LIKE I GOT ALL THE MILKSHAKES
>>218213371It's perfectly obvious that his father abused him when he was a child, and that this abuse made him unable to love or trust others. The abuse may or may not have had a sexual component (it could have just been pure, straight-up hitting), but whatever its exact form, the abuse is obvious, and it explains absolutely everything about his character:-Starts in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin, middle of the country. Wants to get as far away from it as he possibly can (American southwest).-angry loner -mentions that a house back in Fond du Lac that he used to enjoy looking it, imagining owning, cleaning etc, now the thought of that same house makes him sick. In other words, he hates where he came from.-wants to beat others, to overcome, to get back at others, to win. Intense desire to dominate and to win.-hates that the Sunday father beats his children, mogs him in front of his own daughter, staring him down: "He's not hitting you anymore, right? Better not, right? Run along and play."Ironically, although unhealthy in itself, his basic distrust of others turns out to be well-founded. People are in fact lying to him (the false brother), trying to horn in on his territory (a competitor who he warns off), or trying to buy him off (the suits who try to make him an offer). Of course, Daniel himself is a liar (he kept the secret about H.W. for many years, among other things), but this is beside the point.
>>218211939If you’re a /tv/ retard then yes absolutely
>>218211939It's definitely the most overrated movie that /tv/ says is kino. It is a complete snoozefest. If you want to see DDL chew the scenery in an actual kino, watch Gangs of New York or that Lincoln biopic.
I want no one to post except me
>>218215406Bummer
>>218215428I have a meme in me I want no one else to post them
Why'd he drink that guy's milkshake
>>218215406What about you post here and I post over there?
>holdout guy shows Daniel his gun implying that he knows he killed his partner the night before>says if you want to buy the land you have to go to church and confess >he doesn’t confess the murder and it’s never brought up again Plot hole
>>218215837>>says if you want to buy the land you have to go to church and confessHe doesn't say that, he says if he wants the land he should go to Eli's church and "be washedin the blood of Jesus Christ."
>>218211939only women think that
>>218214758Good analysis, glad i dropped by the thread
>>218215837>he knows he killed his partner the night beforeWhat? Daniel killed who? Wtf
Its kino, possible the most manly kino since Master and Commander. Anyone who thinks otherwise is a woman.
>>218214758There’s an early draft of the script where Daniel confesses to Henry he’s completely impotent. I’m glad PTA took it out of the final movie, it’s far too cut and dry an answer to the character’s misanthropy
I really like the scene where they negotiate, are reasonable and even courteous to Daniel and he's so convinced they are trying to screw him over (like he does to others) that he threatens to kill them.An alcoholic sociopath till the end.
>>218216474A million dollars is a joke plus they extort his previous oil endeavors by charging such a huge markup to move his land locked oil
Donnie Darko and Butterfly Effect are female pseud-coreThere will be blood and no country for old men are manchild pseud-core
>>218216338>manly kino >frogposterlol @ you Good flick though
>>218211550Why did so many people back then have initials as names?
>>218211550Juicy details on HW in dem files
>>218216253his fake brother the guy pretending to be Henry
>>218216567In today's money it would be an offer of (conservatively) 30 million dollars to retire from your dangerous and stressful as fuck job.
>>218215368It's an excellent character study, if you were bored it's because you have no eye for the human condition
>>218213899HEY HENRYLOOKS LIKE YOURE ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE DRAAAAIIINAAAAAAGE
>>218217025Yeah but the valuation of his business, basedupon cash flows and reasonable growth projections, was unironically billions. Like the openclaw guy, imagine if openai and anthropic blocked him from using their APIs and offered 15 million to acquire openclaw
OIL CUNT!
>>218215406based and solipsismpilled.
>>218211804hah
Paul Dano refuses to talk in detail about his time with this movie and I imagine it's because he doesn't want to badmouth DDL.
