The “grossly inconvenient” 1988 Daniel Day-Lewis movie buried by the studio: “I find that really despicable”Is Daniel Day-Lewis still the greatest actor in the world? For 20 years or so, that wasn’t really a question, more an indisputable fact once he’d collected his third ‘Best Actor’ Oscar for Steven Spielberg’s Lincoln. In the days of There Will Be Blood or Gangs of New York, a new Day-Lewis film would have been a massive deal, like a new Radiohead album or a Grand Theft Auto game. Reviews of the drama were decidedly mixed, and it lost $10million at the box office, although, of course, Day-Lewis’ performance was praised, because he can’t really put a bad one in. A film that has essentially been forgotten about, and with good reason, it was the last time Day-Lewis would attempt comedy.
