As we reflect on the last ten years, it’s difficult to think of a director with a more thrilling, inventive output than Terrence Malick. After setting a high bar for the decade that still has yet to be topped with his magnum opus The Tree of Life, he delivered a trio of formally stunning, forward-thinking gems, a pair of awe-inspiring IMAX documentaries, and, finally, before the decade comes to a close, his acclaimed WWII-era drama A Hidden Life. If you’re in NYC you will now be able to experience all of these films on the big screen, as well as the rest of his filmography. Timed with the release of his newest film, Museum of the Moving Image in Queens is presenting a retrospective titled Moments of Grace: The Collected Terrence Malick.
