From Terrence Malick, the acclaimed director of such classic films as Badlands, Days of Heaven and The Thin Red Line, The Tree of Life is the impressionistic story of a Midwestern family in the 1950's. The film follows the life journey of the eldest son, Jack, through the innocence of childhood to his disillusioned adult years as he tries to reconcile a complicated relationship with his father (Brad Pitt). Jack (played as an adult by Sean Penn) finds himself a lost soul in the modern world, seeking answers to the origins and meaning of life while questioning the existence of faith. Through Malick's signature imagery, we see how both brute nature and spiritual grace shape not only our lives as individuals and families, but all life.

Max's and Annie's weekly couples game night gets kicked up a notch when Max's brother, Brooks, arranges a murder mystery party. So when Brooks gets kidnapped, it's all part of the game… right? But as the six uber-competitive gamers set out to solve the case and win, they begin to discover that neither this "game" – nor Brooks – are what they seem to be. With no rules, no points, and no idea who all the players are, this could turn out to be the most fun they've ever had… or game over.
