His films \u003ci\u003eBadlands\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eDays of Heaven\u003c\/i\u003e remain benchmarks of American cinema, while his recent \u003ci\u003eThe Thin Red Line\u003c\/i\u003e returned him to the pantheon of American directors. In this new study, authors James Morrison and Thomas Schur examine each of his films in detail, drawing on extensive archival research to construct a portrait of his working methods as a director as well as the thematic, aesthetic, and cultural components of his work. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eMoreover, aside from tracing the development of Malick's filmmaking from its beginnings to the present, the book compares his finished pictures to their original shooting scripts, and so provides a unique means of exploring the nature of his working methods and the ways in which they influence the final products. Revealing the ways in which these films connect to and depart from evolving traditions of the last 30 years, \u003ci\u003eThe Films of Terrence Malick\u003c\/i\u003e provides a comprehensive and penetrating study as well as an informative and adventurous work of film criticism.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJAMES MORRISON teaches literature and film at Claremont McKenna College.
