P.T. Anderson's long-awaited follow-up to There Will Be Blood is allegedly a fictionalized version of the origins of Scientology (with Philip Seymour Hoffman playing an L. Ron Hubbard-esque figure), but this teaser has nothing of that nature to tease. Instead all we get is a jittery Joaquin Phoenix nervously being interrogated by an authority figure about an unseen incident. Obviously this is an exceedingly cryptic little clip, but for die-hard fans (I've liked all of his four of his previous films but only loved Magnolia) it will have to do. The Master opens on October 12th. As always, we'll see.
