“The Phantom Thread” (*1/2 out of four) was a stultifying melodrama set in 1950’s London in which a renowned dressmaker (Daniel Day Lewis) falls in love with a young woman (Vicky Krieps) which causes him to change his highly structured and closeted life. Don’t look for more plot than that or much else either. Molasses-moving and self-indulgent, like much of director Paul Thomas Anderson’s output over the last 15 years. His 1997 masterwork “Boogie Nights” had more charge in its opening scene than this has in its entirety. Day-Lewis is OK but nothing more in what may be his final film role
