The Nose Tugs At A 'Phantom Thread'

Focus Features

Paul Thomas Anderson's Phantom Thread is nominated for six Academy Awards, including Best Picture, Best Director for Anderson, and Best Supporting Actress for Lesley Manville. Oh, and including Best Actor in a Leading Role for Daniel Day-Lewis. It's Day-Lewis's sixth nomination in the category. He's won the award three times previously, including for his work in Anderson's There Will Be Blood. If Day-Lewis were to win again this year, he'd join Katharine Hepburn as the only people ever to win four acting Oscars. It'd be a fitting end to a career that Day-Lewis says is over.

Other possible topics include:

GUESTS:

  • James Hanley - Co-founder of Cinestudio at Trinity College
  • Rich Hollant - Principal and design director at CO:LAB and a commissioner on cultural affairs for the City of Hartford
  • Irene Papoulis - Teaches writing at Trinity College
