Twitter.com - Follow Us! The Tree of Life hits theaters on May 27th, 2011. Cast: Brad Pitt, Jessica Chastain, Sean Penn, Fiona Shaw, Crystal Mantecon, Tamara Jolaine, Joanna Going, Jackson Hurst From Terrence Malick, the acclaimed director of such classic films as "Badlands", "Days of Heaven" and "The Thin Red Line", "The Tree of Life" is the impressionistic story of a Midwestern family in the 1950's. The film follows the life journey of the eldest son, Jack, through the innocence of childhood to his disillusioned adult years as he tries to reconcile a complicated relationship with his father (Brad Pitt). Jack (played as an adult by Sean Penn) finds himself a lost soul in the modern world, seeking answers to the origins and meaning of life while questioning the existence of faith. Through Malick's signature imagery, we see how both brute nature and spiritual grace shape not only our lives as individuals and families, but all life.

Is Terrance Malick's The Tree of Life a meandering mess, or one of the boldest artistic visions of all time. Could it be... both? The new film The Tree of Life is being released in the summer and stars Brad Pitt and Sean Penn. It must be a huge commercial movie, right? Well, with enigmatic filmmaker Terrance Malick at the helm - a visionary director who takes longer to make a movie than just about anyone - it is likely to be anything but. Special guest Peter Sciretta from /Film joins Dan and Jeff as they try to wrap their heads around the most polarizing film of the year. If you love the medium of film, this is one discussion you'll want to take part in.
