Night Owl

The Tree Of Life

The cinematography in the opening half looks amazing. Light dappled through the trees, wide angles, sweeping camera movements, very well edited together. It was the beautiful film I want to see again, a gorgeous model of how to capture a childhood. The second half was less so. It’s darker, more self-righteous to the film’s detriment.
