As a still photographer, his work always inspires me. In fact I watch his films when I’m feeling less than inspired. He has a gift when it comes to composition, light and story. His latest movies don’t have the spoon fed dialogue most look for. We want everything to be spelled out verbally and when it’s not it’s ignored. These last movies are incredible in that you are forced to use your imagination to interpret what’s going on. It’s incredible brave knowing that most won’t watch. You can’t stop art.

Capitalism can, and does. Specially with such an expensive artform as cinema.

@@AST-erisked Yeah because the first thing I notice from a Terrence Malick film is its great writing.

[@JoshuaFagan]

The way you talk about Malick makes me think of Godard, who also make a bunch of classic films before leaving traditional storytelling behind and becoming more wildly experimental.

[@grail68]

Here's another concept: Malick can now film AS MUCH as he wants because it's digital rather than film. This gives him much more freedom to film crazy shit that he can whittle into a finished product in postproduction.

[@v-trigger6137]

I think that's exactly what Patrick meant when he said, that Malick has a younger energy now in his 70s. he is just constantly evolving, with time, experimenting with new technology and equipment. rather than sticking on a past period and getting forgotten like other filmmakers like Brian De Palma or Copola

[@ale_s45]

Shooting with professional digital cameras isn't really that much cheaper than using film. When you consistently make movies starring many top Hollywood actors despite flopping at the box office (or maybe not aiming at it in the first place) it's clear that budget is not a problem for you

I never stopped caring for Mallick. Guy is a bloody genius. The old folks in Hollywood really need to get some slack and move over a bit. What they keep producing lately is utter garbage. Very expensive garbage. All show, no substance. I ounce inspired myself from the poem in king of cup to write a letter to someone I fell for, and it actually worked. Seriously, how cheesy is that. But isn't that the pinnacle of what art can do?

This is fantastic. all of the little skits are such a testament to how in touch you (and whoever's filming) really are with his style lmfao. You forgot Voyage of Time!

[@DaneDavenport]

Comparing Malick's later work to experiential visual art pieces in a museum is dead on. I love these films for precisely that reason, particularly in a theater setting. They use the traditional elements of modern cinema while pushing the narrative bounds of what a movie can be and allow me to think and feel about what I am watching in a different way. But unlike most film pieces you would find in a museum, his films draw me into the experience in a deeper way, and not just different for the sake of difference.

[@JasperJanssen]

Weirdly, they make less money being played in any theater that wanted to have them, than many of these museum bound art pieces make by selling a single copy to a collector.

I honestly love his style, then again, I love Aronofsky and Lynch. The dream-like story telling that serves to reach into to the recesses of your mind, the focus on light and movement, showing vs telling... It's inspiring and drives me to create.

[@Xarithus]

Snow Mathews If you’re into these kinds og dreamy movies then you should also check out 2001: a space odyssey by Kubrick. Also if you’re into older, foreign films then Andrei Tarkovsky probably made the best of the best when it comes to dream-like filmmaking. Check out «Mirror» (1975) and «Stalker» (1979) by him of you have the patience ahah.

[@athenemathews783]

@@Xarithus I seriously love Kubrick and Tarkovsky. I honestly idolize Kubrick's methods and love seeing his influence on directors like Nolan and Ridley Scott. I know that Lars Van-Trier received a lot of negative reactions, but I'd be curious to see how you view his work.

[@Xarithus]

Snow Mathews Snow Mathews I actually haven’t seen any of Von Trier’s movies haha. I really should though, I’ve heard some of them are really great so it’s definitely on my list. Any recommendation to what movie og his I should start with?

[@jakethet3206]

You call him the “Hippy Michael Mann,” but based in his original slower output and how meticulously his movies were crafted, wouldn’t it be fairer to say he’s some weird version of Kubrick?

[@vincentknight27]

It’s pretty simple: After The Tree of Life he made a couple stream of consciousness films that don’t feature a pre-existing screenplay or story and are experimental and largely improvised. Don’t get me wrong, Malick always was very much about experimentalism and “finding the movie in the editing room” as he described it, but he took it up by ten notches after The Tree of Life. The more interesting question is why did he do that. And I have no fucking clue. And since he rarely speak out in public, we’ll probably never know. Anyway, I look forward to his WW2 movie that’s coming out, since he already said that they had a script this time. And it got good reviews in Cannes. So I’ll definitely check that one out

[@vincentknight27]

Okay yeah well I hadn’t seen the video when I posted the comment. Patrick said pretty much everything I also said

[@davidjames579]

Really this is what George Lucas should be doing. Going back to experimental film-making. He has all the money he needs, and everyone slates his films since The Phantom Menace, so why not?
