FILM// TREE OF LIFE






I recently watched The Tree of Life, A film by Terrence Malick staring Brad Pitt and Sean Penn. The film centers around and a middle aged man’s memories of his family living in 1960’s Texas, whilst exploring the origins of creation and the meaning of life. The ‘history of the universe’ sequence is visually amazing and is like a poetic editing of all the most stunning images from nature and science documentaries. It is virtually impossible to explain this film as it is almost completely open to the interpretation of the viewer. It left me with many questions about the creations of life, how is it all connected? How did we get here and why?
