You would think with stars like Ryan Gosling, Michael Fassbender, Natalie Portman, Cate Blanchett, and Val Kilmer a movie would be half decent. Instead, "Song of Songs" is one of the worst movies ever made. It is mainly because it is directed by Terrence Malick who some ungodly figure has blessed with the love of most movie critics and adulation of most grade 'A' actors. This has enabled this man to direct and get distributed some of the worst movies ever made.
If one were to try to describe this debacle it would be that a director, drunk or high on drugs, having found some old Super 8 tapes of his having filmed some behind the scenes rock and roll footage of some rock event that happened in Austin, Texas years ago and then added some of his actor friends excreting drivel under the pretense of a plot. The quality of the lighting and editing lends itself to this theory, also.
Terrence Malick movies are much like the old fable by Hans Christian Andersen, "The Emperor's New Clothes." In that story people were convinced that even though they saw the emperor had no clothes on that he actually was wearing Royal finery. For ages Terrence Malick has been putting out trash and reviewers have given him nothing but praise and actors have been lining up at his doorstep begging for him to let them be in his next movie. I have actually seen some bad reviews for this movie so maybe the tide is turning.
All I know is if you go to see "Song of Songs" you will regret losing two hours of your life.
