Please watch the film before attending the meeting. It is available on Amazon Prime Video, Netflix with a subscription, and HBO Max. 

Director: Paul Thomas Anderson

In challenging but intriguing role, Daniel Day-Lewis gives us his final worthy performance as Reynolds Woodcock. A rarefied designer based on several English designers such as Charles James. Woodcock and his sister Cyrill are the center of British fashion in 1950s London. His toxifying existence soon gets disrupted by Alma, a strong willed woman who becomes his lover.
