Update: Images removed at the request of Fox Searchlight.
While we’re just over two months away from Terrence Malick‘s “The Tree Of Life” hitting theaters, all we’ve had to sate our appetite for the film has been the wonderful trailer and a couple of very select official stills. Well, get ready to feast your eyes.
The Film Stage uncovered a bounty of images from “The Tree Of Life” over at the Russian film site KinoPoisk. And what can we say? They look sublime. While we’ve been discussing the Oscar prospects of the pic around the Playlist water cooler, if anything, the costume design alone looks great. And it should be noted, that pretty much all of these pics focus on the domestic scenes of the film; there are no shots of the cosmos here and probably just as well—we’ll want to see what Malick has conjured up for that on the big screen.
The long-gestating picture is a drama that ferries between a father in the 1950s (Brad Pitt) and his son Jack (Sean Penn), now grown up decades later and dealing with residue from his childhood. Take a look at a huge chunk of the pictures after the jump and the archive linked above for a few more. “The Tree Of Life” opens on May 27th.
