  • Everything from costume design, set design, lighting, and even the score works together to create one beautiful scene like this one here. This is my favourite scene from Paul Thomas Anderson's Phantom Thread and why it became my favourite.
    Part 1 of this video series where I break down my other favourite scene from Phantom Thread, discussing how PTA uses his camera to foreshadow the film's events: • Paul Thomas Anderson |...

    Phantom Thread the most uniquely romantic film ever. What film do YOU find romantic?

      Might be because I'm a Joaquin Phoenix fanboy, but for me, it's gotta be "Her". Phantom Thread is definitely a top of the list contender though - loved your take on it!

      At the surface level, it's a romance. But in the hands of a nuanced director, and possibly the greatest actor in history, turns what should be a bore of typical period piece between lovers, into something completely more riveting and deep.

      Exactly! I felt conflicted to admit that I love the film because it didn't bring any "visible" emotions out of me - laughter, crying, amazement - but the inner turmoil was ravishing. It's so unsettling yet so calm and mesmerizing at the same time. It's got a whole lot in common with Vertigo, and dare I say this is a whole sub-genre of movies in its own right

    I think there is one detail that you didn’t mention: before Reynolds finds Alma and grabs her by the wrist to leave there had also been a bit of a stir in the crowd and Alma had left it. She didn’t seem to feel completely happy in the crowd, somehow a little displaced even though she had wanted to be there. Also her dress doesn’t seem to fit the occasion. Maybe she also must realize she doesn’t belong in that world anymore either.

    Beautiful breakdown of the scene. There is one detail that I’m not sure signifies something for the director, but Alma in Portuguese means Soul, so I’ve also seen the relationship in that perspective as if he is fighting against and towards finding is true soul. A bit like Jung’s red book were he goes into his mind’s landscapes to talk to his own soul.

    this is my favourite movie of all time. rewatching the new years scene, im drawn to the background partygoers-the couple on the balcony especially. their costumes are sexually ambiguous and point towards the complex power dynamic between reynolds and alma. also, by wearing the purple dress (the first one he made for her) to the party, she treats it like a costume, which it kind of is-it represents alma as she is with reynolds/as she is becoming. but of course that treatment of the dress is awful for reynolds to see. interesting that two of his dresses are costume-like (the velvet queen ones).
