    Thanks for the post. Though I don't know anything about Malick's "The Tree of Life," I'm interested in anything he does. I'll google it and come up to speed.

    Tree of Life is still being filmed; it stars Brad Pitt and Sean Penn. Not much is known about this project other than there are special effects people working with Malick this time out, it has dinosaurs for a period as well as a 1950s period filmed in Texas. Some think it is Malick's "Q" project he wrote as a screenplay in the late 1970s. Filming also took place in Austin, Death Valley and apparently Iceland is next.
