"I drink your milkshake..." - Daniel Day Lewis is a genius. I recently watched There Will Be Blood, it was some of the best acting I've seen in a long time. It also points out why I don't trust many preachers (or oil tycoons for that matter). When religion is used as a means to have power and influence over people, and how they feel - it is no better than deceiving someone to take their money and trust. While both of these characters are wretched, Daniel has no illusions about who he is, and does not seduce people under false pretense.
Daniel's Baptism (prior to, and mirroring the previous scene - which is the end of the movie)
