Aaron Sorkin Destroys Sarah Palin, and 6 Other Stories You’ll Be Talking About Today

Also in today’s edition of The Broadsheet: A few additions to the Ridiculous Development Rumor Scorecard… Terrence Malick is the new J.J. Abrams (or something)… The single coolest online photo exhibit you’ll see all day (if not all year)… and more…

The Beastly Trailer: Love is Only as Ugly as Something You’d Watch on The CW

Nothing can liven up a fairly dull day like a brand-new trailer. Unfortunately for everyone, the first look at Terrence Malick’s forever-gestating Tree of Life is only attached to theatrical copies of Black Swan (see it, see it, see it) and not yet online. (Though that hasn’t stopped some outlets from falling prey to ambitious pranksters.) So without Sean Penn and Brad Pitt to warm our cockles on a chilly Friday, we’re left with Vanessa Hudgens, Alex Pettyfer and Mary-Kate Olsen, as some devil woman in an updated version of Beauty & The Beast ? Oh, come on .

On DVD: Criterion Attempts to Get to the Bottom of Terrence Malick’s Thin Red Line

Terrence Malick’s epic war-film daydream The Thin Red Line (1998) is already out on DVD, but it is being reissued this week from The Criterion Collection, and when Criterion steps up to the line, you salute and say yes, sir. Malick’s film remains an underseen masterpiece, the ignored eccentric twin to Saving Private Ryan (the B.O. ratio in 1998 between them was six to one), and a confounding experience for mainstream audiences used to having their hands held.

Boardwalk Empire Mob Movie Memory Lane: Public Enemies

Whether or not Boardwalk Empire adds up to something greater than its stuffy (and expensive), period-perfect pilot remains to be seen. What doesn’t, however, is the fact that the new HBO series from Martin Scorsese and Terence Winter is forged in the pinky rings of other mafia movies. Ahead, take a stroll down memory lane with Movieline to see which of your favorites got their cut during the pilot.

Help Movieline Caption This Photo from the Set of Terrence Malick’s Other New Film

After false rumors, starts, stops and a two-year wait, we still won’t get to see Terrence Malick’s Tree of Life until 2011. So in the meantime, why not help Movieline caption a photo that leaked from the set of his even newer film, currently known only as Untitled Terrence Malick Project ? This one stars Ben Affleck, Javier Bardem, Rachel Weisz, Rachel McAdams and Olga Kurylenko, and the photo below was taken when Malick and a small crew were shooting in Oklahoma at the Indian Summer Festival. That might explain the person decked out in full Native American garb next to Kurylenko, but let’s hear your take! Caption away after the jump.

Tree of Life Officially Out of This Year’s Oscar Derby

Oscar pundits have been holding down a space for Terrence Malick’s long-delayed The Tree of Life for two years, and today brings both good news and bad. On the plus side: The Sean Penn/Brad Pitt drama is finally kinda-sorta dated! Downside: It’s coming out next year. Fox Searchlight dropped the bomb today while announcing that the studio has picked up domestic rights to distribute, and considering the packed awards slate Searchlight is fielding this year (which includes Never Let Me Go, Black Swan, 127 Hours , and Conviction ), maybe a 2011 berth is best.

Now Mercedes will never get those solos! Time has released its list of the 100 most influential people in the entire world , and among the world leaders and philanthropists is Glee star Lea Michele, because why not?

Tree Closing Cannes

Alas, not Tree of Life , Terrence Malick’s elusive mindbender. This little bit of headline rope-a-dope is instead brought to you by The Tree , a French-Aussie co-production announced today as the Cannes Film Festival’s closing-night film. Starring Charlotte Gainsbourg as a mother whose child thinks her late father talks to her via a tree, it will screen May 23, most likely following Doug Liman’s stirring Palme D’or win .
