Hi, this is Steve. Some directors have an absolutely recognizable style. Whether it's the

framing and lens choices of Stanley Kubrick or the Cone Brothers, the rhythm and language

of a film by Quentin Tarantino, or the kind of suspense that only Alfred Hitchcock can

deliver. My guess is, if you were dropped into a movie theater with one of their films

playing, it wouldn't take you long to name the director. Now, Paul Thomas Anderson has

covered subjects as diverse as high-fashioned pornography, religious cults, and unlikely

romances, but the style of his movies remain uniquely and recognizably his own.

Anderson has a clarity of vision that is unlike any other filmmaker working today.

There's a palpable tension in sound design and music, a way the camera moves that is

extremely specific and yet beautifully alive. Performances are unusual, thrilling,

traumatic, and yet undeniably human, and all of that supporting stories, which are immune to

Hollywood tropes, cookie cutter structures, or predictable endings. Paul Thomas Anderson

movies are simply Paul Thomas Anderson movies, and perhaps no film highlights that style in

sharper relief than his 2007 masterpiece There Will Be Blood, starring Paul Dano and the incredible

Daniel Day Lewis. This is without question an amazing film, and we couldn't have asked for a

better guest than Emmy award-winning sound editor, John Grieber. A John has worked at arguably

the greatest sound facility in the world, Skywalker Sound for over 20 years, and his credits include

everything from saving Private Ryan and the Star Wars prequels when he was just starting out,

to being the supervising sound editor on Paul McCartney 321 come from away, and the Bee Gees,

how can you mend a broken heart for what you want an Emmy? There Will Be Blood is one of John's

favorite films, so if you haven't seen it, I highly recommend a trip to our website,
