I too now have a copy of Terrence Malick‘s The Tree of Life script, and will consider sharing it with specially trusted correspondents. It’s dated 6.25.07, and runs 126 pages. I love how someone — Malick? — has hand-written various words on each and every page, words that weren’t printed clearly enough and/or required clarification, whatever.
“Eternity — that realm of pure and endless light. How shall we represent it? A single image might serve better than several combined. The whole creation is in the figure of a tree. The smallest leaf communicates with the lowest root, all parts feeding on the same sap, breathing in the same air and sunlight, drawing the same life up from the darkness of the early below.”
