Quick Review: Toned-down, if still exquisite, crafted with elegance and precision, and poetic in execution, "Phantom Thread" is focused on the draining relationship between the moody, pretentious, and egocentric designer, portrayed truly masterfully by Daniel Day-Lewis, and his muse- and-abuse love interest Alma, but the lack of an actual plot-line takes away from the film's quiet intensity, which Paul Thomas Anderson tries to compensate with an overbearing score that often distracts.
