The Tree of Life

Today we have a new poster for The Tree of Life, which is basically a gallery of images showing off the more beautiful shots in the trailer that was released back in December.

Synopsis: From Terrence Malick, the acclaimed director of such classic films as Badlands, Days of Heaven and The Thin Red Line, The Tree of Life is the impressionistic story of a Midwestern family in the 1950’s. 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 (Brad Pitt). Jack (played as an adult by Sean 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. Through Malick’s signature imagery, we see how both brute nature and spiritual grace shape not only our lives as individuals and families, but all life.

Brad PittThere’s been no official announcement as yet, but it’s been reported that Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have been sighted in Smithville, Texas where Terrence Malick may be setting up for a location shoot.

Heath Ledger had been previously linked to the lead role.

According to previous reports, Sean Penn is attached to star in ‘Tree of Life’ as well.

The story, which the elusive filmmaker has apparently been quietly crafting for decades, has been called a ‘complex drama’.

In the summer of 1978, Malick had begun work on this film, which was his most ambitious project. It was called ‘Q’ at the time, but now it has returned with the title ‘Tree of Life’.
