Terrence Malick is what Hollywood legends are made up of – only six feature films directed in a span of six decades, yet all six are critically acclaimed movies, a reputation of shying away from premieres and cameras, almost no interviews conducted and a noted specialty in visual splendor and meditative tones in his films. 

His latest film ‘The Tree Of Life’ offers audiences nothing less than what is expected in terms of awe and amazement while watching the film. Being eagerly awaited at the Cannes film festival for almost two years now, The Tree Of Life is a story about a man's childhood memories of his family living in the era of the 50’s, interspersed with imagery of the origins of the universe and the inception of life on Earth.

Malick’s devotion and meticulous approach to film-making and the secrecy which surrounds each and every project, is generally what leads to the huge buzz and excitement during each movie’s release. It has been said that “ Few directors truly “find a film in the edit” like Malick.” Malick’s unique style of direction has indeed gotten many admirers and many have since tried to replicate his treatment of a movie.

While talking about Malick’s direction style in The Tree Of Life, Brad Pitt said, “He’s like a guy with a butterfly net waiting for the truth to go by.” Jessica Chastain, the female lead in the film includes, “it was all about capturing the accident. There’s a section where a butterfly lands on my hand. It’s not in the script, and we didn’t put anything on my hand to make it land there.”
