There Will Be Blood wins the 2008 Golden Globe Award:

There Will Be Blood, the movie inspired by Upton Sinclair's novel Oil!, won the 2008 Golden Globe Award for 'Best Performance by an Actor in a Motion Picture-Drama'.

Daniel Day-Lewis was awarded the Golden Globe for his riveting performance as Daniel Plainview, the center of an epic tale about family, greed, religion and oil. Written in 1927, Oil! described the early days of the California oil industry, and proved to be highly entertaining story featuring a cavalcade of characters including senators, oil magnets, Hollywood film starlets, and a crusading evangelist.
