    Literary film + material tape + religious color, the mother believes that she is devout to God, but God took the life of the youngest son. Her faith almost collapsed, and she began to question God's "answer me?!" This led to the extended theme of "Job", God created the world, and the beginning of man, endless life and reincarnation. This is the natural law of the universe. In the human heart, only love and peace of mind are eternal. Mother no longer questioned God, "I entrust my son to...

    After a year of forbearance, I finally fulfilled my desire to watch on the big screen. Since I wrote the first draft about it in 2009, I haven't really read it until now, and I'm really moved. Although I am satisfied, I have doubts about whether to read it...

    96/100, an extremely beautiful tribute to life, classical music + a lot of elevation shots, not only the most primitive awe of life, but also the oppression of people in modern society. Malick erased all the hypocritical superficial things, and used the purest images to show the discussion of life and human nature. The representative of life - water is always flowing in the image, human beings come from water (a house filled with water - the womb), and finally water. In the end, the cry of...

    It is one thing to have philosophical thinking about life, but it is another thing to photograph this kind of philosophical thinking. This is not an acquired ability, but is completely "gifted". People cannot become gods, but they can use this kind of ability. A kind of "talent" to approach God; of course, it also uses "water" as the main item to express the philosophy of life. Old Ta is more like the "chosen son" than Ma...

    9.5 How exactly does our consciousness move and how is our life structured? To answer these two ultimate propositions, Malick constructs images in a way that is close to the flow of consciousness and has vital signs. So far, the image is no longer just the carrier of life perception consciousness. Image has become life itself. It is like a long river, the dead are like this, and they will never go back. One of the most unique is the most common of all, one of the greatest movies of this...

    Some scenes were shot really hard. For example, in order to let the audience understand the miracle of life, Malick did not hesitate to use awkward animation special effects to resurrect the "dinosaur". This kind of processing of sacrificing the integrity of the image is not as clever and easy as "a monkey" in "Super Body" and "the pioneer who died in the wasteland" in "Ghostbusters". But it is undeniable that this pre-philosophical film has a high degree of completion. The collision of the...

    Originally, mountains and rivers, extremely life vegetation, pitched the big universe, and a small inner heart, fluttering like a seagull in the world. Image stream of consciousness, loneliness and self-talk, manic depression and turmoil, uneasy in rebelliousness, blowing trees with the wind, going with the river, and in the end, I am completely evacuated, and there is desolation in front of me, a reincarnation, just to...

    The only way to be happy is to love

    It is not easy to understand "The Tree of Life". Although the director clearly told us that the theme he wants to express is: the only way to be happy is to love, but it takes a long process to understand it. . Just like the length of the film, which is 3 hours and 8 minutes, it is as...

    It wasn't really his fault that Adam ate the forbidden fruit

    I have to muster up the courage to use my own understanding to finally write a film review.

    The movie begins with the Bible, which points to a very religious film. God created the universe, created all things, you and I live from this, and God is the father of mankind. The family represented by the...
