Brad Pitt was sitting in a suite high above the Croisette earlier this week, pondering the divisive reaction to “The Tree of Life,” the long-awaited Terrence Malick movie about life, death, religion and nature, among other things.
“That doesn’t bother me,” he told 24 Frames. “Really. I much prefer that some people love and others don’t get it, as long as it starts a discussion. That’s a bigger win.”
At screenings earlier in the week, some Cannes-goers had embraced Malick’s boldness, while others resisted it, as boos and applause would often mix together. But Pitt was keeping a sunny attitude. “Certainly it’s engaged people in conversation. To me that’s a huge success.”

Curtis LaForche lives in a small Ohio town with his wife Samantha and six-year-old daughter Hannah, who is deaf. Curtis makes a modest living as a crew chief for a sand-mining company. Samantha is a stay-at-home mother and part-time seamstress who supplements their income by selling handmade wares at the flea market each weekend. Money is tight, and navigating Hannah’s healthcare and special needs education is a constant struggle. Despite that, Curtis and Samantha are very much in love and their family is a happy one.
Then Curtis begins having terrifying dreams about an encroaching, apocalyptic storm. He chooses to keep the disturbance to himself, channeling his anxiety into the obsessive building of a storm shelter in their backyard. His seemingly inexplicable behavior concerns and confounds Samantha, and provokes intolerance among co-workers, friends and neighbors. But the resulting strain on his marriage and tension within the community doesn’t compare to Curtis’ private fear of what his dreams may truly signify.
Faced with the proposition that his disturbing visions signal disaster of one kind or another, Curtis confides in Samantha, testing the power of their bond against the highest possible stakes.
Jessica Chastain may be the busiest actress in Hollywood people haven’t heard of yet. With as many as half a dozen films rolling into theaters in the coming months, she’s about to become famous fast.
A veteran stage actress, Chastain’s big-screen career has been largely in a holding pattern, with only two of the 11 films she’s made in the past four years released so far.
That changes Friday as the Cannes Film Festival winner – Terrence Malick’s “The Tree of Life,” in which she co-stars with Brad Pitt and Sean Penn – opens theatrically after a long delay while the director continued to tinker with the film.

You may not know Jessica Chastain yet, but you’re about to. She has two films in Cannes – thriller Take Shelter and Terrence Malick’s loooong anticipated The Tree Of Life.
Total Film caught up with her to talk Malick, Brad Pitt and being almost famous…
On her character, Mrs O’ Brien…
“She’s the perfect mother. She sort of represents the unattainable; she’s the kind of mother I would love to be. She’s the embodiment of grace and compassion, of putting others before yourself.
I’m a similar character in Take Shelter. So I’m playing two good mothers in Cannes!”
On working with Brad Pitt…
“I was intimidated before I met him! Because the idea that you’re going to play Brad Pitt’s wife carries so much weight.
But once you meet him, he really goes out of his way to make you feel equal and at ease and brave enough to be inventive in each scene.
He was wonderful. He plays a very different person from who he is in real life. His character is very closed down, very difficult to be with.
Early on, he did a scene where he has a confrontation with our kids and I was so shocked by it. He said he hated doing it but his performance was so generous to [the other actors] because it enabled us to give our best in the scene with him.
It was great to see him totally throw himself into the character and then at ‘cut’ be normal Brad again, because I’ve heard stories where people don’t throw themselves out of the character!”
On starring in Terrence Malick’s next film…
All my scenes are with Ben Affleck, but I only did two days on that project so I don’t know if I’ll end up in it!
It was a great experience. I got to go to the set and see how it had changed and developed from our set a few years before – how Terrence is constantly evolving as a filmmaker. He’s not stuck in his ways. But I wouldn’t be shocked if I’m cut out of the finished film.”
On getting ready for stardom…
“I’m not going to lie. I’m getting a little anxious about how my life is going to change by the end of the year. But I know I’m never going to have to deal with the kind of fame Brad Pitt has to deal with.
I’ve been offered and have shied away from big franchise films. I’m not saying I’ll never do them, but it would have to be something that would be a challenge.”
On upcoming movie The Wettest Country In The World…
“I play a gun moll from Chicago in the 1930s who ends up in the south with these three brothers who are selling moonshine. It’s a fight between them and the police. My character has a romance with Tom Hardy’s character.
“People are going to be very excited about this film; [director] John Hillcoat is a master.It was the kind of set where the actors who weren’t working that day would show up just to watch scenes being made. Which doesn’t happen often!”

Take Shelter, starring Michael Shannon and Jessica Chastain, took home the top honor at the famed Cannes Film Festival Thursday, winning the Grand Prize in the Critic’s Week Competition!
The film is being billed as a “psychological thriller” and was notably the only American submission to the competition.
Despite being a thriller, the movie’s synopsis paints it much like a stereotypical disaster film, stating that the film is about “a man attempting to protect his family from an impending natural disaster.”
The exact nature of the disaster hasn’t been disclosed: whether it is an earthquake, tornado, tsunami, hurricane or otherwise remains to be seen.
