| Abstract
|
:
|
As the director of Badlands, Days of heaven, The thin red line, and The new world, Terrence Malick has created a remarkable body of work which enables imaginative acts of philosophical interpretation. This book looks closely at the dialogue between Malick's films and our powers of thinking, showing how his work casts the philosophy of thinkers such as Stanley Cavell, Martin Heidegger, Walter Benjamin, André Bazin, Edgar Morin, and Immanuel Kant in new cinematic light. Focusing on how the voices of Malick's characters move us to thought, this offers new readings of Malick's films and places his work in the context of recent debates in the interdisciplinary field of film and philosophy. Also provides a postscript on Malick's recently released fifth film, The tree of life.
