Meanwhile, the director is shooting another picture now in Oklahoma. We don’t know much about it other than it is a romantic drama, Javier Bardem and Barry Pepper both play priests, and Rachel McAdams, Ben Affleck, Rachel Weisz and Olga Kurylenko are in the cast.
From the acclaimed director of such classic films as Badlands, The Thin Red Line and Days of Heaven, The Tree of Life is the impressionistic story of a Midwestern family in the 1950?s chronicling the journey of the eldest son, Jack (played as an adult by Sean Penn), through the innocence of childhood to his disillusioned adult years – trying to reconcile the complicated relationship with his father (Brad Pitt). Jack finds himself a lost soul in the modern world, seeking answers to the origins and meaning of life while questioning the existence of faith.
