The Tree of Life gets UK release, July 8

After months of false promises and discouraging legal snarls, it now seems that The Tree of Life will reach theaters in the UK on July 8.

“We knew this was an amazing film from the moment we saw it,” Gilula and Utley said. Pohlad added: “For Searchlight has been an extraordinary partner distributing our film in the United States, so we’re thrilled to have them release The Tree of Life in the United Kingdom, allowing international audiences to experience Terry’s beautiful and affecting masterpiece.” Pohlad produced the film with Sarah Green, Pitt, Dede Gardner and Grant Hill.
