If you haven't seen it, A Hidden Life has the most Tarkovsky feel to it for me. It felt very inspired by Mirror, specifically. I say that as a person who loves both films, too.
I can't believe the author of the article so blithely dismissed To The Wonder, Knight of Cups, and The New World. The New World is probably my favorite of all Malick's films so far.
Uh, why not The Tree of Life?! One of the most incredible movies ever made. I thought To The Wonder was comparatively nothing at all.
Terrence Malick's To the Wonder and A Hidden Life. To the Wonder is a more "typical" Malick film, but Javier Bardem's character is wonderful. A Hidden Life is a more more straightforward film (for Malick) which focuses on the life of a Catholic beatified for his resistance to the Nazi regime.
