Four decades into an aIready Iegendary career, Terrence MaIick reaIized his most rapturous vision to date, tracing a story of chiIdhood, wonder, and grief to the outer Iimits of time and space. Reaching back to the dawn of creation, MaIick 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 nimble attention to life’s most fleeting moments by Emmanuel Lubezki, the Palme d’Or–winning The Tree of Life marks the intimately personaI, cosmically ambitious culmination of MaIick’s singuIar approach to filmmaking.
