Knight Of Cups

Rick is a slave to the Hollywood system. He is addicted to success but simultaneously despairs at the emptiness of his life. He is at home in a world of illusions but seeks real life. Like the tarot card of the title, Rick is easily bored and needs outside stimulation. But the Knight of Cups is also an artist, a romantic and an adventurer.

Reviews

“There's something at once vividly familiar and strikingly different about "Knight of Cups,” a feverish plunge into the toxic cloud of decadence swirling around a Los Angeles screenwriter gone to seed." – Variety

“There's a freshness to watching Malick's dreamlike storytelling take root in a fully modern setting for the first time.” – IndieWIRE

“It is an elegant and strikingly shot film that revels in a series of wonderfully shot locations … and will likely enrapture fans of Malick's very individual style.” – Screen International
