Terrence Malick |OT| Trees, sunsets and people escaping the camera.
Love those shots though:
Yeah, i remember Nick Nolte talking about that, in an interview from TTRL.

Doesn't he use a mix? I could swear I saw some digital cameras in the set photos.
I remember hearing there is some Red in Tree of Life, but unless it's in the Creation chapter, I don't think there is any. Maybe this time though.
He used some Red on this film, but I don't think we'll be seeing much digital work from him until the next two films that he shot over the past year.
From what I've heard, he likes to mix in some digital shooting so as to experiment with free form improvisation in takes longer than four minutes.

iirc, he did shoot some scenes on red at the very beginning, but didn't end up using it because he didn't like the way it looked. or something.
there was a post about this on some camera-related forum made by someone who worked on the set at the time, but i seem to have deleted the link from my favorites.
Wish I had my old film professor's email. He's probably losing it. Guy lived for Terrence Malick. We watched his films almost exclusively in that class. Glad we did though, fantastic stuff.
Absolutely. He films half his scenes during the "golden hour".

The New World has a pretty normal three-act structure. It might have the most traditional structure of all his movies.

truth be told I did enjoy A Thin Red Line.
Much better trailer imo, but why still no HD?

Studios give the HD trailers to sites for exclusives and these sites release them in SD so they can host them themselves and put ads on them. It's makes NO sense why they don't just put it on YouTube in HD off the bat.
Because of the french? At least the point of the movie seems a little more clear.

To the Wonder, To the Wall - http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=8cx4J4E8YWg
This shit should be burned. The highest of arts paired with the lowest, rap. <_<
by what metric?
Wait...that was a real trailer? I though it was fanmade.
The juxtaposition highlights the issues about human relationships, and also enhances the meaning of the film.

Now I want to see it.
Can't believe I just discovered the trailer just now. I think it looks great, although I have some hesitation about the "narration" of the trailer. It sounds kind of chessy to me.:/ the themes and images look so good though.
Some of my favorite malick films like The New World and Days of Heaven have had strong romantic elements, interested in seeing how this one plays out, considering it's literally about love this time around.

wow it looks so pretty, but it'll be boring like the tree of life.
It makes it clear that Malick needs to learn to utilize the quick cut more.

Bumping once again to ask this of Detective Film Score GAF.
I've been hunting since the trailer first hit with no such luck.

The music in the French trailer is "November" by Max Richter. No idea on the first trailer.

I saw this a few weeks ago now, but didn't post since no one on gaf seem to have seen it. Anyway, I posted this somewhere else afterwards, spoilers obviously:
I have to say that i found this to be a tough watch, probably the toughest of the Malick films, not becuase it's poorly made or anything, but the emotions in it explores is mostly negative. I'm afraid i didn't get much of that sense of joy that you guys did and i'm not sure if that is intended.There wasn't very much of Paris at the beginning and things turned sour very quickly. When we meet Bardem's priest he has already lost his connection with God; the whole town, the house, that issue with water was always one big metaphor of this falseness, emptiness that was in their relationship, as if everything was already poisoned even when things looked beautiful on the surface and Olga is all dancing and cute.
I feel we had bits of this in Thin Red Line, when the captain remembers his wife, and in The New World as well. Here it focuses in and gives up the grandness of his other films to portray how i guess Malick sees the contemporary world. It's claustrophobic, first person to the extent that words from others are muffled; the camera stick close to and often right behind the person. There isn't the sense of labour and connection with the land and season as with Days of Heaven. I was reminded of the photography of Robert Adams for some reason. He did shots like these:

Boo hoo. I'll likely see it next year. Maybe.
