Malick's "Knight of Cups" (Bale, Blanchett, Portman)

Twitter reactions:

Nigel M. Smith@nigelmfs:
"KNIGHT OF CUPS > TO THE WONDER
(thank god)" #Berlinale

Filmbrain (Andrew G) @Filmbrain
"KNIGHT OF CUPS: Flirtations w/ narrative, fragments of a life, and a portrait of Los Angeles that outdoes all others. A masterwork."

Stephen Mayne @finalreel:
"Bad Malick. Slightly better version of To the Wonder. Beautiful to look at, music superb, content bland."

Neil Young @JigsawLounge:
"Still a bit shaken after KNIGHT OF CUPS - Malick's best since THIN RED LINE, surely. TO THE WONDER essentially an elaborate sketch for this."

Karsten Meinich @KarstenM:
"Terrence Malick goes completely into a Godardian essayism with KNIGHT OF CUPS - an emotional and terrifying world of phantoms and images."

Hanna Newton @popcorn pyjamas
"KNIGHT OF CUPS was a beautiful let down. Definitely style over substance here."

Eric Eidelstein @ericeidelstein
"Am I crazy or was there a Twin Peaks Major Briggs voiceover in KNIGHT OF CUPS?"

Adam Cook @AdamCook:
"KNIGHT OF CUPS is Malick at his most explorative—TTW was an awkward step toward what he's arrived at here...Great? Maybe. Astonishing? Yes."

Redmond Bacon @RedmondBacon:
"Knight of cups was like really good but also really on-the-nose. Didn't know whether to clap, boo or burst out laughing. #Berlinale"

Knight of Cups is *beep* glorious.
(the IMDb beeped bit rhymes with 'bucking' btw lol)

David Cox @david_t_cox_
KNIGHT OF CUPS feels like another branch off of TREE OF LIFE, just as TO THE WONDER did. And it's spectacular.
 
That poster is ace. :hrt: :up:

There were some hilarious, cringe worthy moments during the press conference (courtesy of the idiotic press) and this is my favorite:

 
No release date yet but there has been a batch of pics released.

Excellent. Was this filmed around the same time as Bale filming filming TDKR and mainly those pit scenes? He seems to have the same look.

Looks one for the Bale fangirls as well as the Malick fans. Bale's never looked better outside of American Psycho/TDK trilogy :hmr:
 
Yeah dude it was filmed in 2012 but took two years of post production work from Malick and it had it's World Premier in Berlin in February of this year.:funny:

Oh and Bale in American Hustle is my kind of man. :hmr:
 
He's good in American Hustle yeah but doesn't quite ooze the sex appeal as he did in The Machinist :woot:
 
Terrence Malick's 'Knight of Cups' Won't Get U.S. Release Until 2016 http://bit.ly/1FtpdnB


Following a premiere at the start of the year at Berlinale, Broad Green has now revealed they are holding Knight of Cups, starring Christian Bale, Natalie Portman, Cate Blanchett, Isabelle Lucas, Antonio Banderas, Frieda Pinto, and Wes Bentley, until 2016.

“We want to have the longest run possible, not for money’s sake, but so we can get as many people to share the experience,” Broad Green’s

Gabriel Hammond tells Anne Thompson, revealing they will skip a December release for a bow sometime in 2016. While it’s unfortunate for those greatly anticipating the film, we have seen time and time again a rushed late-year release that results in a stunted roll-out. After that, they’ll release Malick’s next Austin-set drama, which was recently titled Weightless (confirmed by its producers), but will be retitled for its U.S. release.
 
I came in here, because I've recently developed this unhealthy obsession for The Thin Red Line.. In all honesty, I have watched the film about 7 times these last two weeks. This, to me, looks like his most interesting work since that film. And...I have to wait until March?

...F***.
