Tree of Life


I watched TREE OF LIFE today. It's an impressive film but I don't know what to say about it yet. I need time to watch it again and think about it for a while.
What Malick does in "The Tree of Life" is create the span of lives. Of birth, childhood, the flush of triumph, the anger of belittlement, the poison of resentment, the warmth of forgiving. And he shows that he feels what I feel, that it was all most real when we were first setting out, and that it will never be real in that way again. - Roger Ebert
