there will be blood (p t anderson, 2007)

Took me two years to see this one. 

"Bastard from a basket" and "I drink your milkshake" are gold.

A man mining by himself. The aloneness and danger of it is impressively nauseating to watch and contemplate.

Feels like 2001 at the start. A world before we made it ours. Each technological advancement at the mine feels like a new bone or monolith.

Those who found the oil fires to be beautiful are directed to Werner Herzog's Lessons of Darkness.
