Like F. Scott Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby or Modest Mouse's The Lonesome Crowded West, There Will Be Blood is a distinctly American masterpiece. Its overriding themes of religion, greed, family and loneliness converge to evoke a desperation that could only have come from the oil rush gripping our country in the early 1900’s.

You mean you went against the English 11H corner and actually paid attention while we were discussing Gatsby, at least enough to label it as "a distinctly American masterpiece"? Or are you just parroting here, Hamelt?

er, gatsby's themes of ambition, money, materialism, class, etc. are pretty obvious (not to mention that the whole book is pretty much a critique of the American Dream).

no parroting here.
