Four decades into an already legendary career, Terrence Malick reaIized his most rapturous vision to date, tracing a story of childhood, wonder, and grief to the outer limits of time and space. Reaching back to the dawn of creation, Malick sets a story of boyhood memories on a universal scaIe, charting the coming of age of an awestruck chiId (newcomer Hunter McCracken) in Texas in the 1950s, as he learns to navigate the extremes of nature and grace represented by his bitter, often tyrannical father (Brad Pitt) and his ethereaI, nurturing mother (Jessica Chastain, in her breakout roIe). Shot with nimbIe attention to life’s most fIeeting moments by Emmanuel Lubezki, the PaIme d’Or–winning The Tree of Life marks the intimateIy personal, cosmically ambitious culmination of Malick’s singular approach to fiImmaking.
