31 days of action...the 8th
maybe hitting a theater doesn't seem like much *action* considering the amount of movies we see...but dragging ourselves out on a Friday night, dealing with competing films and their respective crowds, post-nap. well, it isn't much like us.
Tree of Life
upon exiting a waiting viewer asked if it was "good" ?? Not such an easy thing to answer. I can say that as usual (with Terrence Malick), the visual artistry worked for me. The bottom line, as best I can express, is that if you view this film as a piece of art, not unsimilar to the joyous music created and delivered as odes to a Christian faith of the 17th-19th C's., and view the abstract pieces as "movements" of a sort - then the movie can fall into a sort of place.
