    After Gary and Melancholia, another landscape film that broke me down, just looking at the backlight and the baby in high-profile photography would be too beautiful to breathe, and just looking at the flow of life in the universe would be deeply addictive. But the problem is, when the two parts seem to switch frequently without any premonition, and when you remind yourself that this is a "feature film", it is difficult for ordinary viewers not to feel...

    The ambition of the film is really big, but has it really reached Kubrick's heights? It's a matter of opinion. The perspective extends from the joys and sorrows of an ordinary family to the birth and evolution of the entire universe, the Milky Way, the earth and even life. The director tells everyone that both the universe and a person have the same destiny and laws, from nothingness to lushness to barrenness. What is eternal, like rolling on and on, this is...

    Memories turn time into a movie, but in fact it is only the time of a cigarette. When a boy who has passed the expiration date is alone, he recalls the cold violence he suffered when he was growing up, the stream of consciousness, the use of the aperture to enhance the sense of flashback, and the long illustration of the origin of life, which is not far away. The motif remains the struggle and reconciliation of patriarchy. A father who can play the Bach organ fugue. The technical aspect is more...

    Life is a process of finding the truth. It's the process of finding that is important. It doesn't need a god or a director or a voice-over to tell...

    2011 Cannes Palme d'Or. 1. Malik is a poet, philosopher, gorgeous photography and dazzling editing, raving monologues, and a poetic flavor different from Laota and An Zhe; 2. Nature, family, religion, suffering, and returning after going around Love and gratitude, the eternal motif; 3. A large number of low-camera and upside-down shots, which seem to simulate a child-like awe-inspiring perspective; 4. Smart and free movement of the camera, sympathetic classical soundtrack, grand narrative + pers

    The pictures of the universe, the appearance of dinosaurs, trying to connect the micro and macro worlds, as well as photography and music are all very brilliant... but they are still a bit empty, and the conclusion at the end is even more superfluous. A lot of things remind me of a documentary called Ashes and Snow (2005). The director's other film, "Days of Heaven" (1978), is also an empty but extremely gorgeous...

    To me this film has everything to do with facing death and the Christian God, & neither of which moved me. I was bored to the point of extreme restlessness watching the endless childhood snapshots, weaved by discovery-channel-like documentary scenes played in slow...

    It's good to keep it simple and to the point, the most unsuccessful part should be the dinosaur... Seeing the whole speechless, the first half thought it was a tribute to the French movie...

    Malik's philosophy of life

    Malick studied philosophy before making the film, having translated Heidegger's short work "On the Significance of Evidence" and writing for Wittgenstein. The person who had the greatest influence on him was Heidegger. Heidegger said in "Being and Time" that when people focus on measuring time with...

    Thoughts on the end of life

    Since the 2012 film, the 2011 American films have revealed clues about life in the apocalyptic world, intentionally or unintentionally.
       In addition to the popular "Thriller Doomsday", this "Tree of Life" is no exception, but its expression is more subtle, beautiful and subtle.
       First of all,...
