Despite the absence of a simultaneous 4K release, the 1080p Blu-ray of *Phantom Thread* offers sensational detail, capturing its 35mm film grain, rich color palette, and nuanced textures. From the meticulous stitching of costumes to ambient lighting, this transfer is a technical marvel, highly anticipated in its 4K form.

Audio: 86

The DTS:X Master Audio soundtrack for Phantom Thread is exceptional, delivering clear musical notes, precise dialogue, and immersive atmospheric details. While primarily front-channel focused, the mix uses surrounds sparingly to enrich the setting. Highlights include Johnny Greenwood's score and subtle, impactful sound effects.

Extra: 51

Phantom Thread's Blu-ray extras, though limited, offer engaging insights into the film's production, including detailed camera tests with Paul Thomas Anderson’s commentary on lenses and filters, deleted scenes scored by Jonny Greenwood, a faux 1950s fashion show, and behind-the-scenes photographs presented with demo versions of the score.

Movie: 87

Phantom Thread masterfully intertwines a tale of obsessive routine and disruptive love, where Daniel Day-Lewis delivers a hauntingly precise performance as master dressmaker Reynolds Woodcock. Vicky Krieps and Lesley Manville brilliantly complement him in a film marked by meticulous craftsmanship, stunning visuals, and a delicate balance of intensity and elegance.
