88/100
"You shall love, whether you like it or not."
A flowing, ethereal dance, fed through textural landscapes and a vivid rekindling of feeling. You might as well take away my Late-Malick skepticism card because I fell, hook, line and sinker, for every smooth touch and beam of light, radically shown through a ghostly perspective as pure translations of Malick's cinematic mindset wander luminous fields and squishy beaches of endless waves. Not AS revolutionary as some of Malick's previous efforts, but just as passionate, revolting and clutching along with each gesture, kiss, and argument as if it's the last we'll ever see. In particular, a single cut from a gentle current to a wide American heartland vista hit me like a train. A work of trickling genius that reaches for nothing less than obtaining THE essence of a romance on the silver screen. You can't criticize him for trying. Woof, talk about a rewatch paying rich, emotional dividends. Beautiful.
