L.A. critics call for 'Blood' - Entertainment News, Award Central News, Media - Variety: "The Los Angeles Film Critics Assn. proved a bloodthirsty lot on Sunday, giving Paul Thomas Anderson's 'There Will Be Blood' four awards, including picture and director. Daniel Day-Lewis won the actor prize (his third from the group, having previously been honored for 'Gangs of New York' and 'My Left Foot') for playing an early 20th century California oil man in the intense drama, which was also cited for Jack Fisk's production design. Produced by Anderson, JoAnne Sellar and Daniel Lupi, the 158-minute Paramount Vantage release, which Miramax is handling overseas, doesn't open until Dec. 26."
