tree of life-formation of the universe scene

this was such a bold move for terrence malik and one of the most visually stunning movies i have seen in a long time.
the man is an artist,painting with humanity as his canvas and blending the physical with the metaphysical.
this movie may not be for everyone with its heavy undertones and slow pace...but it has a humanity that is undeniable.
brad pitt and sean penn were amazing.

synopsis:
The Tree of Life is a 2011 American drama film with experimental elements written and directed by Terrence Malick and starring Sean Penn, Brad Pitt, and Jessica Chastain. Malick's film chronicles the origins and meaning of life by way of a middle-aged man's childhood memories of his family living in 1950s Texas, interspersed with imagery of the origins of the universe and the inception of life on Earth. After several years in development and missing 2009 and 2010 release dates, the film premiered in competition at the 2011 Cannes Film Festival, where it won the Palme d'Or. The film received widespread critical acclaim, but also polarizing responses to Malick's use of technical and artistic imagery, directorial style, and fragmented non-linear narrative. In January 2012, the film received three Academy Award nominations for Best Picture, Best Director and Best Cinematography.[3]
