Storyline
The impressionistic story of a Texas family in the 1950s. The film follows the life journey of the eldest son, Jack, through the innocence of childhood to his disillusioned adult years as he tries to reconcile a complicated relationship with his father (Brad Pitt). Jack (played as an adult by Sean Penn) finds himself a lost soul in the modern world, seeking answers to the origins and meaning of life while questioning the existence of faith.

Trivia
Terrence Malick wanted the interior spaces to be unlighted, so 3 houses were used in the main story, depending on the time of day and the position of the sun. The sun is always visible shining through the windows. See more »Goofs
Factual errors: The credits say that Brahms 4th symphony, 2nd movement is heard (in a version by Von Karajan, not Toscanini as in the film) but it is the 4th movement. See more »Soundtracks
