“The Tree of Life”

The movie’s title is The Tree of Life. The IMDB summary simply reads:

The story centers around a family with three boys in the 1950s. The eldest son witnesses the loss of innocence.

But the only words that really matter are these: Terence Malick. Writer-director of such films as Badlands (1973), Days of Heaven (1978), The Thin Red Line (1998), and The New World (2005). Malick doesn’t make many movies. But the ones he makes are memorable and at their core visual feasts.

Check out the trailer for The Tree of Life:

Wow. One stunning image after another. Hopefully the narrative will be as strong.

The Tree of Life opens May 27, 2011.

Any Malick fans out there? Are you excited to see his newest film?
