And now Phantom Thread is a half-harrowing, half-tender chamber piece about the nature of love that also pokes, amusingly, at the supposed importance of the Great Artist. It's a strange, remarkable piece of work, and a reminder that laughter doesn't have to derive from jokes. It can come from feats of audacity, too.
That Phantom Thread would prove sumptuous, and that its costume designer, Mark Bridges, would prove to be one of its handful of MVPs, was to be expected. The rest is a little bit of a shock. In a way, Phantom Thread is like another of this yearâs dirtbag-artist movies, Darren Aronofskyâs Mother!, a film that goes out of its way to give male poets a bad name. Phantom Threadâs Woodcock has a contentious streak in him, too, an easily wounded pride to match his devilish talent and charm.
