I Want You Flat on Your Back, And Then I Want You Strong Again: A Different Phantom Thread

“These are Alma’s and the film’s first words. A cynic will scoff, but no, give a serious thought to this idea. How many of us have the courage to dream – how many of us have the courage to dispense with cynicism and see our dreams come true?”
