What is Knight of Cups about?

Rick is a screenwriter living in Los Angeles. While successful in his career, his life feels empty. Haunted and confused, he finds temporary solace in the decadent Hollywood excess that defines his existence. Women provide a distraction to his daily pain, and every encounter brings him closer to finding his place in the world.

Knight of Cups is a 2015 American romantic drama film written and directed by Terrence Malick. Starring Christian Bale, Cate Blanchett, and Natalie Portman, the film follows Rick (Bale), a hedonistic screenwriter who goes on an odyssey through Los Angeles and Las Vegas as he undertakes a series of adventures with several people, including his ex-wife Nancy (Blanchett) and his married lover Elizabeth (Portman).
