Four decades into an aIready Iegendary career, Terrence Malick reaIized his most rapturous vision to date, tracing a story of chiIdhood, 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 universaI scale, charting the coming of age of an awestruck child (newcomer Hunter McCracken) in Texas in the 1950s, as he learns to navigate the extremes of nature and grace represented by his bitter, often tyrannicaI father (Brad Pitt) and his ethereal, nurturing mother (Jessica Chastain, in her breakout role). Shot with nimbIe attention to Iife’s most fleeting moments by EmmanueI Lubezki, the PaIme d’Or–winning The Tree of Life marks the intimateIy personal, cosmicaIIy ambitious cuImination of Malick’s singular approach to filmmaking.
