The first time I watched it, I remembered the beginning, the second time I lived at the end, and the third time I finally discovered the true purpose of PTA making this film. The dark history of a capital imprints the distressed minds of a generation of Americans. It is as dark as primitive. Chasing prey like wild beasts, heading for destruction in the empty and cold lair, the lies and betrayals behind the American dream, and the struggle of faith are all manifestations of the bloody human nature. PTA is today’s greatest American director.

William Bandy: I'm Bandy.
Plainview: Uh, yes. Yes. Um... William Bandy, huh? Yeah, I'd like to lease your land.
William Bandy: I had asked for you to come and talk to be me before. When you were leasing land.
Plainview: That's right, yes. My boy's been very sick, you know.
William Bandy: This was before your boy got sick. Now, I know that you would like to build a pipeline through my property. Is that right, what I've heard?
Plainview: It's absolutely right, and, uh... well... It's an eight-inch pipe. It can buried with your consent. I guarantee you absolutely no disruption...
William Bandy: God. God has told me what you must do.
Plainview: And what is that?
William Bandy: You should be washed in the blood of Jesus Christ.
Plainview: Oh, but I... I... I am. I have been washed, Mr. Bandy. I... I have been.
William Bandy: It's your only way to salvation AND your only way for what you want. You can take it at the Church of the Third Revelation.
Plainview: I'll pay you three thousand dollars.
William Bandy: I'd like you to be part of our church.
Plainview: I'll pay you five thousand dollars.
William Bandy: Be baptized, be forgiven for the sin that you've done.
Plainview: What sin are you, uh, referring to, Mr. Bandy? My... my sin of drilling?

Plainview: What's this? Why don't I own this? Why don't I own this?
Al Rose: That's the Bandy tract. He was the holdout, when we were doing the buying? He had hoped to speak with you. Can't you just build the pipeline around this tract?
Plainview: Can I build around fifty miles of Tehachapi Mountains? Don't be thick in front of me, Al.
Al Rose: I can go to him again...
Plainview: No, I'll go and talk to the man. I'll talk to him, show you how it's done.
