Terrence Malick - The Works
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 17 авг 2011
- No one makes films quite like Terrence Malick. Although he has only made five films in the past four decades, he deserves to be labeled as an iconic American filmmaker. All of his works share the stunning visuals, powerful themes and dramatic realism required to make a masterful piece of film. Some label Malick's films as pretentious but I see them as the unique expressions of a true artist. With this tribute, I really wanted to display Malick's artistic talent and why his films are truly unique and special.
As for my next tribute, it will be a while before it is released since I will be so busy over the coming months.
However I will still leave you with a clue: Droog

I watch this and the Kubrick video everyday before I sit down and write. Talk about inspiration.
I watch them both for inspiration as well. There's something magical and spiritual about there work, as if they inspire the soul to look beyond its boundaries.
Absolutely right
inspiration comes from the unwritten word.
His films are pure cinema.
People will quit sleeping on Malick when he dies.
God Forbid
OzKardozi No Malick film has been as loved as the ones he made before his hiatus. One could argue that his later films are more indulgent in pacing and less clear on plots but so is David Lynch's work and none of it is as hated as Malicks.
OzKardozi "How can you love Days of Heaven and not love Tree of Life?"
Heaven is almost an hour shorter than Life, with a much clearer plot in comparison. In fact, Malick since his return, more specifically since the new millennium, has relied much more on utilizing body language to tell a story and hasn't made a film under 2 hours.
So to recap, longer lengths + less clear and more complex plots + impatient population = the general consensus that he went senile during his hiatus. This is horrifically untrue, and is another reason why the mainstreams opinions on high art are generally irrelevant.
OzKardozi Tree of Life gets a bit too overtly devout in the 3rd Act (especially towards the end). I guess it may strike a chord with religious people but personally I thought it got a bit preachy towards the end. Still a great film though. I too prefer Days of Heaven because it's more coherent and just as beautiful. I think Days of Heaven, Thin Red Line and the New World are Malick's best films.
+Nameless Paladin Honestly, I think that Badlands is a much better film than The New World. I mean there a lot of great things about the film, but to me the film was unnecessarily dragged out in some parts. To me, Malick's best films are Badlands, Days of Heaven and Thin Red Line
The Thin Red Line................ Epic.
Jisas Yu Holem Hand Blom Mi always brings a tear to my eye.
One critic said about The Tree of Life (roughly paraphrased), "He is the anti-Michael Bay of filmmaking. Whatever you may think of his films, he puts it up there onscreen and says, 'This is what I believe.' And God Bless him for that."
Mark Kermode right?

Yes.
@@KhangLe-hl6kn what about the rock?
Film is a visual art and no-one does it better than Malick.
love Terrence Malick , he is one of the best directors alive
some movies will haunt me for the rest of my life and the thin red line is one of them. I don't know what it is about it, but it's just sheer beauty, it's the most beautiful movie I've ever seen.. how the sountrack merges so perfectly with the imagery... it's so amazing
This is visual poetry
The Greatest Director in the History of the Cinema. His films never fail. I'm still one of a few who thinks To the Wonder was another masterpiece to Malick's Pantheon.
This is really well put together. Tree of Life I think is his masterpiece.
most people dont have anything on their minds do they amazing line
I could watch this video on repeat for hours. Thank you for such a beautiful edit of this master's work.
Hey, man, thank you for this. On many a sad day I've found myself trailing off to youtube for specifically this video. You capture the magic of the man. I love that roaring shot of Badlands at the very end; you feel the freedom and expanse and pure energy. Riding off into eternity!
Very nicely put together, it made me think what a great collection of images Terrence Malik have given us over the years.
I love these director's tribute video."the films of..." , "......-The Works" , "Film daries: .... "
Wonderful !
I saw the film at TIFF back in September and I left it underwhelmed (for similar reasons). I'm thinking about possibly giving it a rewatch.
This is my favorite "The Works" as of now
Never seen any of these movies, but I'll definitely add them to the list after this.
just watching this makes me want to cry because it's all so beautiful .
Brilliant stuff, fantastic tribute to a true cinematic genius
Probably my favourite RUclips video at the moment.
this is probably my favourite video on youtube.. it gets to me every time, especially when Penn says "some day we'll fall down and we'll.. understand it all.. all things"
One of my favorite directors. Thank you for creating this video
This is GOLDEN.
You really did a great job with this video. I love the editing, the music you choosed, the mood in it.
Those movies are inique, and you managed to point out their magnificence.
Thank you.
Man ... I almost cried
terrence malick is great director. Thanks for video, has been excellent.
Absolutely Brilliant!
Such an amazing completion of moments. Thank you
A REALLY GREAT example of Malick's irrefutable genius ... that even if so with much seeminly-unrelenting UGLINESS in the world, there's also A LOT out there that's really quite BEAUTIFUL, too...

Awesome line. I knew it was going to a long and bumpy ride after that. Thanfully the movie has left no permanent stain on my mind and all those laughable lines have pretty much faded. The dancing....my god, the nonstop dancing.
Wonderful!!!
I hope this video never gets deleted or changed. Its perfect and entirely too lovely and human
Who needs trailers? Your videos are perfect advertisements for directors' entire filmographies.
Beautiful
FINALLY somebody makes a good terrence malick tribute!
I read/heard somewhere that Malick is a native of Oklahoma. Thanks Joel for creating these. They're great.
Great work, love me some Malick.
I love your videos. I hope soon to see more directors and to update some, good work continues
"Who lit this flame in us? No war can put it out, conquer it. Where does it come from?" The best way to alter a line and make it into the most beautifful quote in film
This video moves me more than anything I've ever seen (Other than Malick's actual films). THESE are the kind of films I want to make.
i almost forgot to watch this today.
very beautiful.
the music makes the video. incredibly well done.
I just saw The Thin Red Line yesterday, I'm amazed with Malick's skill for filmmaking!!
Totally agree with you!!!! So proud of him.
Ooo this one gave me chills while viewing... great editing
his films are like poems, beautiful poems :')
Malick is the Best. A God Amongst Men!
Friggen onions making me cry.
THANK YOU BASED MALICK!
Thank you soo much!
One in a billion talent...can't wait to see Knight of Cups on the big screen
thank you for taking the time to do this
Exactly why Malick is my favorite filmmaker. Such a beautiful compilation.
Thank you
I'm really into directors and this is the best representation of any director I've ever seen
Enjoying these, thank you for the great work....
Thank you so much for doing this.
very beautiful tribute !
Maybe you want just entertainment from movies but I want more. Malick makes ART. If he wanted prestige.... he would appear on the media everyday, but he doesnt want to. If he wanted money he would do what Tony Scott and the other directors do.
Still my favorite one, Sir Joel. So good.
Thank you for this, you collected and captured the essence of Malick in three minutes
wonderful video!!! thx!
Brilliant director and a great tribute! Thanks!
Ben
strong compilation well done
I can watch this video and never get tired of doing so. Very well put together!
wonderful, inspiring montage ! i like your trademark of putting the titles, like this one is great... brilliant choice of music as well
Thank you for this video. I return to it every few months for inspiration. You did a masterful job.
Inspiring words
The last moment i felt true happiness was while watching the tree of life.I love all of his films, these films are mesmerizing in their beauty, I wish we as humans lived our lives with more regard to the natural world around us,Christianity has robbed us of our strength
Kubrick Came a lot earlier and created a greater number of master pieces, He started in 1951, and he directed his first movie in 1955.
But Malick entered the business about 19 years after that, in 1969.
And when Stanley released his final film in 1999, Malick wasn't even half way through his career.
A beautiful tribute. Terrence Malick is one of my favourite directors, up there with Scorsese, Lynch and Kubrick
I'm not a huge fan of Malick's storytelling, but his movies are filled with gorgeous shots and poetic lines. They're pretty much tailor made for a montage like this.
But i think no one makes more beatufil films than TERRENCE MALICK not only for the Visual aspect! but for his philosophical and spiritual aspects of his films!
The New World ftw!
Such a great job you did! Regularly return to this to reaffirm my affection for and fascination with Malicks work despite his latest efforts ;)
this was a real joy to watch, you really captured the spirit of the great man's work.
Sigur Ros fit so perfectly. You're a master editor.
Very nicely done
I recommend seeking out the Criterion releases of 'The Thin Red Line', 'Days of Heaven' and 'Badlands' (releasing in March) on Amazon!
Amazing video dude! :-) Malick is an artist out of times...
I have to tell you once again: I absolutely love your videos and this one is your very best!
Oh my gosh this is so lovely, I love that you used Sigur Ros. They are what Terrence Malick movies would sound like if you could only experience it through sound
excellent video
Your BEST one yet ;)
THIS IS SO GOOD!!!!! PLEASE MAKE MORE!!! DO ONE FOR ALMODVAR AND WES ANDERSON
wow, really good montage.
Great stuff man!
