Forget Brad Pitt, Sean Penn and up-and-coming starlet Jessica Chastain. The real star of Terrence Malick's anticipated drama The Tree of Life is its breathtaking cinematography courtesy of quadruple Oscar-nominated Emmanuel "Chivo" Lubezki -- so much so that Lubezki even said that the camera work took precedence over all actors and dialogue on set. To further prove this point, Fox Searchlight is giving the real Tree of Life star 70 close-ups in the film's new mosaic poster.
The film, which clocks in at over two hours long, was rumored to premiere at this year's Cannes Film Festival, but instead will premiere in the U.K. on May 4. Tree of Life opens stateside on May 27.
