Has anyone watched the Tree of Life ?
watched it about a month ago after wanting to see it for ages. I liked it. I'd give it a 6.5 outta 10. worth seeing.
the narrative is told through a series of random scenes and images and voice-overs rather than just action sequences.
visually lovely and kind of a 'mind through the eyes of a child' premise, and how we reflect on early memories later on in life with a different perspective to when we first experienced them. it's mainly about the need to resolve our fundamentally unanswered questions I think.
it's total self-indulgent nonsense too. I'm a huge David Lynch fan, and I'd consider him massively self-indulgent, so that's not really a criticism, just an observation. but the ending [or the observation of Penn's 'resolution'], was complete arse due to said indulgent wankery, imo
Did you give it a watch yet?
rewatched 2 flicks while curled up in bed today. I highly recommend both:
Wish You Were Here ..
up yer bum! ... etc etc
Tom Bell makes a great pervy uncle.
and also:
Hard Boiled
I've got a huge framed version of the poster below.
