Tree Of Life FINALLY Debuts In Cannes To Mixed Reaction

A film that will leave a silent at the end of it.This film has been going for over a year and it finally climaxed with this morning's 8:30AM press screening. There was such anticipation for this film that the cavernous 2300 seat Lumiere Theatre at the Palais was completely full a half hour ahead of showtime, unprecedented. Reactions are mixed.

There is a sequence in the film, which kind of meanders around through the subconscious of its characters, but probably specifically one character. As a family absorbs the shock of a death, we are plunged back in time — as in, all the way back in time, before there was even life on earth. The seed of desire is planted in an instant. This desire will swell to a lifetime’s searching, a primal need for another person to fulfill it. How lovely to see it played out with such subtlety, without judgment, the truth laid bare.

A film that inspire deep thought about our own lives.Some people thing is a good film other think is an horrible film,--like always we all has different point of view thing.
