Review of The Tree of Life (2011) by Alice L — 28 Dec 2012
A challenging watch. It can quite easily be viewed as pretentious but I think this view isn't really justified. This is a film dealing with several huge and ambitious topics in a way rarely if ever done before.
It's experimental, which I thought was brilliant, we are too often carried away by the commercial side of film rather than appreciating that it can too be an art form. It's far from perfect, but the more I reflect on the film the more it causes me to think, and the more I like it, and that's what art should do.
