Daniel Day-Lewis came out of retirement (again!) for Anemone, and we’re asking the question no one can seem to agree on: is this his best performance since There Will Be Blood… or should he have stayed in his cobbler era?

I'm breaking down the movie, the madness, and the method — with a few tangents along the way, obviously.

Expect hot takes, accidental insights, and a healthy amount of DDL worship.

If you love movies, overanalyzing actors who probably don’t own a TV, or just hearing two people passionately argue about fictional characters — this one’s for you.
