Tree of life (biblical)
The tree of life is a term mentioned in the Hebrew Bible.
In the Book of Genesis, the tree of life is first described in as being" in the midst of the Garden of Eden" with the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.
After the fall of man," lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever", cherubim are placed at the east end of the Garden to guard the way to the tree of life.
The tree of life has become the subject of some debate as to whether or not the tree of the knowledge of good and evil is the same tree.
In the Bible outside of Genesis, the term" tree of life" appears in Proverbs and Revelation.
It also appears in 2 Esdras and 4 Maccabees, which are included among the Jewish apocrypha.

Terrence Malick
Terrence Frederick Malick( born November 30, 1943) is an American film director, screenwriter, and producer.
Malick began his career as part of the New Hollywood film- making wave with the films" Badlands"( 1973), about a murderous couple on the run in 1950s American Midwest, and" Days of Heaven"( 1978), which detailed the love- triangle between two labourers and a wealthy farmer at the turn of the century, before a lengthy hiatus.
He returned to directing with films such as" The Thin Red Line"( 1998)," The New World"( 2005), and" The Tree of Life"( 2011), being awarded the Golden Bear at the 49th Berlin International Film Festival and the Palme d' Or at the 64th Cannes Film Festival, respectively.
Malick's films have been noted for exploring themes such as individual transcendence, nature, and conflicts between reason and instinct.
They are typically marked by broad philosophical and spiritual overtones, as well as the use of meditative voice- overs from individual characters.
The stylistic elements of the director's work have inspired divided opinions among film scholars and audiences; some praised his films for their cinematography and aesthetics, while others found them lacking in plot and character development.
His first five films have nonetheless ranked highly in retrospective decade- end and all- time polls.

Kim Ki-young
Kim Ki-young
( October 10, 1919 – February 5, 1998) was a South Korean film director, known for his intensely psychosexual and melodramatic horror films, often focusing on the psychology of their female characters.
Kim was born in Seoul during the colonial period, raised in Pyongyang, where he became interested in theater and cinema.
In Korea after the end of World War II, he studied dentistry while becoming involved in the theater.
During the Korean War, he made propaganda films for the United States Information Service.
In 1955, he used discarded movie equipments to produce his first two films.
With the success of these two films Kim formed his own production company and produced popular melodramas for the rest of the decade.
Kim
Ki-young's first expression of his mature style was in his" The Housemaid"( 1960), which featured a powerful" femme fatale" character.
It is widely considered to be one of the best Korean films of all time.
After a" Golden Age" during the 1960s, the 1970s were a low- point in the history of Korean cinema because of governmental censorship and a decrease in audience attendance.
Nevertheless, working independently, Kim produced some of his most eccentric cinematic creations in this era.
Films such as" Insect Woman"( 1972) and" Iodo"( 1977) were successful at the time and highly influential on the younger generations of South Korean filmmakers both at their time of release, and with their rediscovery years later.
By the 1980s, Kim's popularity had gone into decline, and his output decreased in the second half of the decade.
Neglected by the mainstream during much of the 1990s, Kim became a cult figure in South Korean film Internet forums in the early 1990s.
Widespread international interest in his work was stimulated by a career retrospective at the 1997 Pusan International Film Festival.
He was preparing a comeback film when he and his wife were killed in a house fire in 1998.
The Berlin International Film Festival gave Kim a posthumous retrospective in 1998, and the French Cinémathèque screened 18 of Kim's films, some newly rediscovered and restored, in 2006.
Through the efforts of the Korean Film Council( KOFIC), previously lost films by Kim Ki- young continue to be rediscovered and restored.
Many current prominent South Korean filmmakers, including directors Im Sang- soo, Kim Ki-duk, Bong Joon- ho and Park Chan- wook, claim Kim Ki- young as an influence on their careers.
