Se estrena aquí el 2 de febrero como EL HILO INVISIBLE.

Una entrevista bastante abierta de Anderson sobre la película, y su relación de trabajo con Lewis:

Paul Thomas Anderson opens up about the mysterious 'Phantom Thread' for the first time

How long have you been toying with this idea?

It’s very new. It’s a new idea, really within the past few years. Some of the previous films I’ve made have been ideas that have been lingering around for a while in one form or another. I generally didn’t have that much knowledge or interest in the fashion world until I started finding out a little bit about a guy named Cristóbal Balenciaga. He led very monastic life, completely consumed with his work — sometimes at the expense of other things in his life. Our characters become something very different. Our story focuses on if you have a character like that, what would it take to disrupt his life. Usually, it’s love that does that.

Knowing your work, I can’t imagine this being a traditional love story.

It’s not your standard love story. It’s more peculiar for sure. A lot of directors have tried and failed to make Rebecca. I’m probably next in line, but it’s a different story. I’m a large aficionado of those large Gothic romance movies as the old masters might do them. What I like about those kinds of love stories is that they’re very suspenseful. A good dollop of suspense with a love story is a nice combination.

What ideas were you trying to get at?

I had a story that was in search of characters, which is rare for me. I needed a man for this story. I needed a woman and another woman. It was good for the story for the man to be very strong-willed, stubborn, set in his ways, slightly fascist, creative, that kind of thing. That’s good because then you’ve got something you need to crack and to figure out how to crack. I think many people would agree, just like they would about the Golden Age of Hollywood, that the peak time for couture was in the early-to-mid 1950s. There were so many beautiful dresses that were made that are still referenced and spoken about and admired. I love the idea on a pure style level being able to have that around your story. That was appealing. And to work with Daniel, it would be nice to have a story — it’s been a long time since he’s played an Englishman. The more I saw the pictures of this era, it was just so much contagious. It was real syrupy, to get into that. It’s really easy to look good. I just made a movie with all of these dirty hippies with facial hair and stuff. It’s like, “Oh, god. Let’s do something with fancy people.”

Was reteaming with Daniel Day-Lewis something you’ve planned for a while?

It came about at my suggestion because I thought we did it well together, and we loved what we did before. I suppose there’s always the risk of trying to do it again, but it seemed crazy not to take the opportunity. I was actively pursuing that, saying, “We have to do this. We have to get back together and make a film.” I couldn’t quite tell you which came first. If you’re hoping for something, you can start to will it into existence. He was receptive to it, so that was a good start. Then the process of writing it was really the two of us together, quite honestly. I’d give him things as I was writing. Rather than go away and write a script and try to impress him, I was collaborating with him each step of the way as I was going, which was very helpful in terms of forming the story and the character. But also, it was incredibly practical for time [purposes] because it gave him time to prepare whatever he was going to have to learn how to do to play a dressmaker. It would not have been practical to write a script alone in my room and then hand it to him and say, “Oh, now we have to get started.” That seems crazy.

Did you discuss his plans to retire during the filming?

No, it was never discussed. I think he’s been saying that he’s wanted to do it for a long time. I do remember him telling me that he really thought about retiring after I think it was The Boxer. Hopefully, it’s something that he’ll reconsider. In the meantime, he’s left it all out on the field, I like to think.

Was a part of you afraid that you broke Daniel Day-Lewis?

[laugh] No, no.

There’s a lot of excitement among your fans that you’re serving as your own director of photography on this.

I should really clarify that. That would be disingenuous and just plain wrong to say that I was the director of photography on the film. The situation was that I work with a group of guys on the last few films and smaller side projects. Basically, in England, we were able to sort of work without an official director of photography. The people I would normally work with were unavailable, and it just became a situation where we collaborated — really in the best sense of the word — as a team. I know how to point the camera in a good direction, and I know a few things. But I’m not a director of photography.

Is there no credit on the film?

No, there is no credit on the film. If you can give credit, Michael Bauman is the gaffer that I’ve worked with for many, many years on a lot of projects. I could veto Mike, I guess, but he held a lot of the keys. There was a camera operator, Colin Anderson, I’ve worked with, and Erik Brown, who was the first assistant cameraman and Jeff Kunkel, who was a grip. It was a real package like that. It was a really easy way of working. You have to be very, very careful because there are way too many good cinematographers that I would not put myself in that class for a second.

vamos, que él no es el director de fotografía y tampoco hay acreditado ninguno, tampoco los gaffers o asistentes. Me imagino que por una cuestión sindical


Nos quedamos sin análisis de Harmónica :rubor
 
nadie habla de las primeras criticas a pesar del embargo?mirad las estrellas :babas
https://letterboxd.com/film/phantom-thread/reviews/by/added/

hago un microresumen de las opiniones

por supuesto obra maestra, que Daniel DLewis esta cojonudo pero la que se lleva la palma es la chica
que es la mejor comedia romantica del año :mmmh
que tiene el mejor uso de montaje-musica que se hayan visto en siglos gracias a un Greenwood super hipnotizante
que huele a nominacion a los oscars
que es la mas lineal y entendible de Thomas Anderson, aun asi hay vericuetos y giros que no te esperas
que parece una capsula del tiempo, parece hecha en la época
que es muy dificil que PTA vaya a mas despues de esta

en fin, apenas dicen mucho por los embargos, pero ya promete la muy zorra

¿VICE y... PUNCH DRUNK LOVE? Sobre ésta sé que suele clasificarse de comedia, pero nunca lo he pillado del todo... Me encanta, pero no creo que sea más abiertamente cómica que, por ejemplo, la primera mitad de BOOGIE NIGHTS. De todos modos suele haber mucho humor en sus pelis, incluso POZOS por puro exceso tiene sus momentos, aunque sea de sonrisa torcida.

Última edición:
Por cierto, Lewis explica su abandono:

“I knew it was uncharacteristic to put out a statement. But I did want to draw a line. I didn’t want to get sucked back into another project. All my life, I’ve mouthed off about how I should stop acting, and I don’t know why it was different this time, but the impulse to quit took root in me, and that became a compulsion. It was something I had to do [...] I have great sadness. And that’s the right way to feel. How strange would it be if this was just a gleeful step into a brand-new life. I’ve been interested in acting since I was 12 years old, and back then, everything other than the theater—that box of light—was cast in shadow. When I began, it was a question of salvation. Now, I want to explore the world in a different way.”

Daniel Day-Lewis Explains His Retirement From Acting
 
Hombre, Punch es comedia romántica, es Tati, es el Hollywood clásico, es cierto que es marciana y él psicópata, pero comedia al fin y al cabo.

Boogie es desenfadada, pero es un drama coral. Fantástica, anyway.
 
Day-Lewis siempre ha tenido pinta de jincho-hooligan. Por eso me maravilla verle clavar tipos como Cecil...
