Nominations spread "Blood"

After receiving eight Oscar nominations, Director Paul Thomas Anderson says his film, "There Will Be Blood," is reaching a greater world audience than anticipated.

"The Oscars mean that we will be playing ... for about three months longer than we would have planned," Anderson said. "It means that we are playing in cities that we never got a chance to play."

"There Will Be Blood," starring Daniel Day-Lewis and Paul Dano, follows prospector Daniel Plainview, played by Day-Lewis, in his relentless and often ruthless search for oil and wealth in a tiny California town in the late 1800s, and his rivalry with a local preacher played by Dano.

The film has not only received the best-actor Oscar nomination for award favorite Day-Lewis but also was nominated for best picture and best director.

The 2008 Academy Awards will be awarded Feb. 24.
