This is how it goes with Terrence Malick — long stretches of quiet around whatever he’s working on, followed by an intense period of scrutiny as it gets unveiled. And so it goes today, with "Knight Of Cups" premiering at the Berlin International Film Festival. The first poster was revealed, our review is right here, and we’ve gotten our hands on all the music featured in the director’s latest look at the soul of man (or something).
As per usual, Malick leans heavily on classical jams, with compositions by Arvo Part, Claude Debussy, Edvard Grieg, and more. For those of you want to cue up your playlists with something more contemporary, there are tunes by Thee Oh Sees, Explosions In The Sky, Burial, and a ton of music by ambient electronic artist Biosphere.
Below you’ll find the full list of songs, and on the next page, all the tracks your ears can handle.
