To be quite honest, I would rather have back surgery than sit through Terrence Malick’s previous three films ever again, or recommend that anyone submit themselves to the experience of To the Wonder, Knight of Cups and Song to Song. They were all excruciating, indulgent and pointless exercises for Malick, who in 2012…

Fox Searchlight’s A Hidden Life, Terrence Malick’s film that tells the true story of conscientious objector Franz Jägerstätter, who refused to fight for the Nazis in World War II, was screened at the Vatican on Wednesday.

EXCLUSIVE: The Hobbit and Poldark star Aidan Turner is the latest name to join Terrence Malick’s starry, under-the-radar life of Christ movie The Last Planet. Turner will play the Apostle Andrew. Snippets have been seeping out over the last few months about the project, which will tell the story of Christ's life…

I thought I'd figured out Hollywood's prevailing attitude toward firearms. Oscar winner John Legend seemed to sum it up at an appearance in Dayton this week when he said: "The NRA doesn't represent America," and "we're tired of bigotry and hate turning lethal because of easy access to guns." Then I saw the trailer for…

The pic, which Searchlight snapped up for $12M-$14M, tells the story of Austrian farmer-turned-WWII conscientious objector Franz Jägerstätter, who refused to fight for the Nazis. The production, which…

In the Terrence Malick canon, A Hidden Life is reportedly one of his lower-budgeted films, with a net production cost in the high single digits. That’s significantly below the $32 million net cost of his 2011 Cannes Palme d’Or winner Tree of Life, which starred Brad Pitt, Sean Penn and a fresh-faced Jessica…

EXCLUSIVE: Terrence Malick’s Cannes Film Festival competition drama A Hidden Life has been hailed as an impressive return to form for the U.S. writer-director. Buyers immediately began circling after the film’s debut here yesterday, and Fox Searchlight has come out on top for U.S and a number of international markets…

When you have a movie starring Michael Fassbender, Ryan Gosling, Rooney Mara, Cate Blanchett and Natalie Portman, you might think that would be cause for celebration this weekend. But it turns out that the film they are in, Song To Song, is more like a cause for pain. As I say in my video review above, this latest…

Terrence Malick showed up. Even as early risers headed to the SXSW panel discussion of his Song to Song at the Austin Convention Center, they no doubt wondered if the enigmatic filmmaker would actually be there. Last night, the film's producer Nicolas Gonda announced the director “may show” at the film's world…
