EXTENDED LAST CALL: Terrence Malick’s filmography at Fifty Plus (NeMLA, panel)
Famed and enigmatic filmmaker Terrence Malick’s remarkable filmography turned fifty recently. It begins with Badlands, that is, which appeared on October 15, 1973, followed five years later by Days of Heaven (1978). He returns after a twenty-five year hiatus with a triptych of literary and historical adaptations, including The Thin Red Line (1998), The New World (2005), and The Tree of Life (2011).
