Review of The Tree of Life (2011) by Joel A — 03 Feb 2017
Although considered only an 'Art' film this film has tremendous depth & visual scope. On the surface it's the story of a Mid West American family & their struggles & joys but there is so much more to this than initially seems.
The film in my opinion focuses on creation in general with the juxtaposition of the creation of the earth & a child itself.
This is by no means entertainment but very deep & thought provoking. Sensational performance by Jessica Chastain who is a shinning star. Also terrific performances by the young boys..Terrence Malik has directed a beautiful film.
