Malick basically got worse over time ;_;
Quit reading RT scores & formulate your own opinion. Explain how you think his newer movies are worse.

Malick's his next film is called Radegund about a conscientious objector in WW2 Germany, i read earlier today. good to hear he isn't continuing the biographical stuff.
>>71147404
He's gotten better over time. He has mastered whatever vision it is that he has in his head.

I came up with my list without looking at any critical sites. Sorry
>Will To the Wonder--or TO THE WONDER, as the film's end credits have it--finally dispel the aura of reverence that has settled over the cinema of Terrence Malick? The late creation of an artist can act as an alembic, concentrating and thereby heightening the qualities of his former work, Robert Bresson's L'Argent (1983) being only the most imposing example. And To the Wonder, like Andrei Tarkovsky's Nostalghia (1983) and The Sacrifice (1986) (both of which Malick has drawn from, particularly in 2011's Tree of Life), distills all that is intolerable in its maker's films. Ironically, To the Wonder is positioned as a departure, the first in Malick's oeuvre, aside from a few uneasy sequences in The Tree of Life, to be set in the present day. That apartness--Terry Does Contemporary--serves to reveal that Malick's stylistic traits, previously identified as auteurist signatures, appear too often tics and affectations. What Malick's disciples praise as his ambition and sincerity increasingly registers as feigned naivete, an untoward belief that his fervent romanticism can renew such exhausted tropes as a van Gogh field of sunflowers, a Milton tree of life, a Gauguin South Sea paradise. The unfortunate effect of To the Wonder is to cast a retrospective pall over the director's work, to underscore the tendency in his earlier films to banal symbolism, manufactured rapture, and middlebrow aestheticism.

I wonder if his short is available anywhere 'Lanton Mills'
>>71149683
>When Terrence Malick donated a copy of his thesis film LANTON MILLS to his alma mater, The American Film Institute, he stipulated that scholars be allowed to view the film in the AFI library in Los Angeles, but nowhere else. The film cannot be copied or checked out.

It doesn't seem likely but at least we can read a little bit about it. It sounds great hopefully it gets released someday.

>Badlands and Days of Heaven first
>>71149996
Rather sad then, as I am not from USA and not a scholar of AFI.
