Phantom Thread

“Whatever you do, do it carefully.”

In 1950s London, Reynolds Woodcock (Daniel Day-Lewis) runs a fashion house where every morning and every stitch follows his rules, with his sister Cyril (Lesley Manville) managing the business beside him. When he takes a young waitress, Alma (Vicky Krieps), as his muse, the order he has built begins to shift. Paul Thomas Anderson shot and directed the film himself, and Jonny Greenwood's score moves through the rooms like a second set of footsteps.
