Berlin: "Blood" on the carpet
Daniel Day-Lewis and Paul Dano at the Berlin premiere of "There Will Be Blood."Earlier, Dano said he feels that he never prepares enough for a role. But when you work with Day-Lewis, particularly when he has hold of a bowling pin, you sometimes don't need to act: "When you're actually terrified, you don't have to do much acting."
When a journalist asked Day-Lewis if he thinks the ending of "Blood" is controversial, he replied "Apparently the Coen brothers made a movie with an ending that's much more controversial ["No Country For Old Men"], so we haven't had to answer that question much."

Michael Jones is the film festival editor at Variety.com.












If you ask him again, he'll probably tell you it's none of your f*cking business, like he did to that Australian reporter. God, I love that crabby snarkiness, along with only about a million other things about DDL.

Day-Lewis's reponse is evasive. MJ's is wily. I'm tuned.

It will be the same answer. Daniel Day-Lewis is very cautious around the press these days. Stay tuned for why.

Evasive answer. Can you ask him again please?
