The Tree of Life
— Saw “The Tree of Life” yesterday & the images are still floating through my head. I never expected such an ambitious film to be so successful. It felt like I was wandering through a shared, free-form, 1950s experience (Brad Pitt is great) inside Malick’s mind, but the gorgeously photographed spiritual & evolutionary sections made me wish my mind got more routine exercise. I can’t imagine anyone not loving or hating the film. I loved it.
[2011. 139 min. Directed by Terrence Malick. Starring Brad Pitt, Jessica Chastain, and Sean Pean.]
