Giving Tree

I didn't realize that the trailer for Terrence Malick's The Tree of Life wasn't online yet. I've actually seen it twice in theaters now, but then I'm so fucking awesome and ahead of the curve and all. Anyway hey if you haven't seen it yet, you poor downtrodden unawesome thing, you can watch it at Apple. It makes me cry. Anyone know what the music in it is? Is it from Desplat's score? It's gorgeous and I want it on my iPod now. And here's the lovely poster for the film (via) which is new to me:

It's a fucking beautiful trailer...hope the movie is too!
I only know the first piece, It's the second movement of Smetana's Ma Vlast: Vltava

Hey JA! Marshall beat me to it...but yeah, the music is from Ma Vlast, and this is one of the first trailers in a long time that I've seen where I almost bawled in the theater. It is just that good...I can't believe how hauntingly beautiful it is.

On another note, if Emmanuel Lubezki doesn't get the Cinematography Oscar for this like he so deserved on Children of Men...I decree that there is NO justice in this world. This looks astounding.
