The Tree of Life
From the acclaimed director Terrence Malick comes The Tree of Life, an artistic and profound film about the meaning of life centering on a normal and rather insignificant family of the Midwest. The film forgoes traditional narrative in favor of a visual opus that even Stanley Kubrick himself would appreciate. The best thing you could do is go into the film expecting a cinematic experience; it rids itself of any conventional qualities. |
