Knight of Cups | March 4 2016 | Terrance Malick, Bale, Portman, Blanchett

[Joel M]

First half of the trailer has a Wolf of Wall Street/Great Beauty vibe but I doubt that would be similar to those movies. I'm not a huge Mallick fan but the only movie of his I disliked was New World so I'm excited. Also Bale looks great and way younger than what he looked in his recent movies.

 

I remember when the project was anounced it was allegedly starring Bale/Portman but judging from how little of Portman we see in the trailer most of her "lead" role ended up on the editing floor. Such a Mallick thing to do.

You can tell it's a Malick movie.  Same type of shots and camera movement.

Well, it was filmed about 3 years ago.

[CoolioD1]

Looks like Great Beauty remixed with the sad Sean Penn bits from Tree of Life.

[Clef Ment]

This is easily the best trailer I have seen all year. Terrence Malick. :worthy:

 

 

Looks like a tv ad for a camera.

Or a tv ad for an insurance company if you cheat on your wife.

Yes...looks like Mallck movie...but still pretty good trailer

[The Stingray]

Poots, Portman, Palmer... I'm in.

Combined screentime over/under 10 minutes? 

 

Anyway I don't always love Malick (mainly I just don't love Tree of Life), but I'll see anything he puts out as soon as I can. There's no other major American director working who's this uncompromising, especially now that Lynch has seemingly quit big-screen filmmaking for good. The more I think about To the Wonder the more I appreciate it.

if this gets released at the right time, it'll get 100+. 

 

If this gets released at the wrong time, it'll get <1M.

^ It'll be lucky to make over 10m domestic.

 

When's it actually being released, anyway? All I can find is that it's debuting at the Berlin Film Festival in February.

I don't think a Malick film is making over $100 million if it's released at the right time or not.

So a film that tries to tell us how Hollywood ruins people and steals their souls?  Blech.  A film about billionaire life styles and we are supposed to feel sorry for them?  Looks like more typical Malick shit on a stick.

[Plain Old Tele]

Can't wait.

Aaron Sorkin actually started on the project with Malick, but after 3 years stuck in a room together they realised their filmic sensibilities were just 'too different'.

[baumer]

Well, there's a fuckin surprise.

Sorkin makes good films like a Few Good Men.  Malick makes...whatever it is he makes.

It took them three years to figure out Words vs Pictures?

Terrence Malick is still one of the most interesting auteurs. And his love of Zoolander makes him even more interesting.
