"Phantom Thread" synopsis

London, 1950s. Reynolds is a genius tailor who reigns at the center of British fashion and is in the spotlight from society. One day, Reynolds meets waitress Alma and takes her as his new muse. He loved Alma's "perfect body" and continued to obsessively make dresses using her as a model day and night. However, Alma grows dissatisfied with Reynolds, who repeatedly ignores Alma's feelings and treats her with insensitivity, and one day he mixes a small amount of poison into her breakfast... Eventually, the two open the door to a forbidden love that cannot be turned back, and head to a state that no one could have imagined. Is this form of love distorted? Or is it pure love? Behind the scenes of gorgeous haute couture (high-quality tailored clothing), the sweetest and most frantic psychological battle of love in movie history begins!

The genealogy of the main character drawn by PTA

At the heart of Paul Thomas Anderson's (PTA) films is an observational look at people who are caught up in something with an extraordinary amount of energy. At the same time, the main characters he depicts are exceptionally funny, or charismatic to the point of being hateful, or sometimes even isolated geniuses.

Reynolds Woodcock, the main character of Phantom Thread, is also a worthy member of the lineage of PTA protagonists. Set in the American West in the early 20th century, ``Phantom Thread'' stars There Will Be Blood, the star of ``There Will Be Blood,'' which depicts a man who rises to become an oil tycoon, as the Phantom Thread. It depicts the fashion world in London, England in the 1950s. Reynolds is a designer and dressmaker who owns a salon that creates dresses and social wear for upper-class women. He dedicates his life to making clothes for his customers, and although he is on the verge of old age, he does not have a family, and he and his beautiful sister, who are co-owners, have taken care of the salon with the utmost care. Their customers are women from aristocracy and royalty.

Reynolds takes great care in creating the ultimate dress that accentuates the girls' beauty, and ruthlessly cuts away anyone who gets in the way. The film begins with him getting rid of his beautiful mistress who has begun to act like a wife.
