I have a thesis about movies. It is as follows: Daniel Day-Lewis is good in everything. As a corollary: Daniel Day-Lewis only appears in good movies.

He elevates mediocre prestige pictures (like the above literary adaptations and Gangs of New York which should have just not had Cameron Diaz or Leonardo DiCaprio in it at all) with stellar performances. He shows up in little art house pictures like The Ballad of Jack and Rose and The Name of the Father and he will break your heart. And friends, I firmly believe that he is going to melt your face off with this one:
