The Tree of Life
Written & Directed by Terrence Malick
Starring Brad Pitt, Jessica Chastain, & Sean Penn
The Tree of Life is a beautiful film full of rich imagery and great performances. While Pitt and Penn are good, Chastain really stood out to me as the best performance. The child actors are phenomenal, especially Hunter McCracken.
From IMDB: “A family with three boys in the 1950s. The eldest son witnesses the loss of innocence.”
Also: “The impressionistic story of a Texas family in the 1950s. The film follows the life journey of the eldest son, Jack, through the innocence of childhood to his disillusioned adult years as he tries to reconcile a complicated relationship with his father (Pitt). Jack (played as an adult by Penn) finds himself a lost soul in the modern world, seeking answers to the origins and meaning of life while questioning the existence of faith.”
Watched via Blu-ray from Redbox.
