“The Tree of Life” – 2011. Dir. Terrence Malick

3 Jun

With Brad Pitt, Jessica Chastain, Hunter McCracken, Tye Sheridan, Fiona Shaw and Sean Penn

“Guide us. To the end of time.”

    I was fortunate enough to see Terrence Malick’s “The Tree of Life” today. Anything I could try and articulate about the film, would fail it in every way possible. I don’t know whether or not I’ll ever muster up the courage to write a review, or even my thoughts/interpretation of the film, but this is for sure: “The Tree of Life” is not only “the greatest movie ever made”, but – it is the most profound thing that I have ever seen.

    Those are some bold statement, my man.

      I know. I’ve just never felt the emotions that I felt during that movie. It touched me, Bro Montana.

    Big words. I don’t believe you sir.

      I did have to dust off my thesaurus. I just figured “phat” didn’t do it justice.

    Wow you really are a pompous film snob looking down on us from your ivory review tower.
