Terrence Malick's Days of Heaven, the long-awaited follow-up to his 1973 debut Badlands, confirmed his reputation as a visual poet and narrative iconoclast with a story of love and murder told through the jaded voice of a child and expressive images of nature. In 1916, Chicago steelworker Bill (Richard Gere, stepping in for John Travolta) flees to Texas with his little sister Linda (Linda Manz) and girlfriend Abby (Brooke Adams) after fatally erupting at his boss. Along with other itinerant laborers, they work the harvest at a wealthy, ailing farmer's ranch, but the farmer (playwright Sam Shepard) falls in love with Abby, and, believing her to be Bill's sister, asks the three to stay on at his elysian spread. Seeing it as his one real chance to escape perpetual poverty, Bill urges Abby to marry the sick man. Marriage, however, has more restorative powers, and the farmer has more magnetism, than Bill had planned. "Nobody's perfect," Linda impassively observes in one of her many voiceovers, after their brief paradise is erased by plagues of locusts, fire, and lethal jealousy. ~ Lucia Bozzola, Rovi

Review For Days of Heaven

Visually and thematically, it's still one of the most beautiful films ever made.
David Jenkins-Time Out

One of the great cinematic achievements of the 1970s.
Variety Staff-Variety

Perhaps the most typical example of a '70s American art film -- daring, romantic, rebellious but also filled with longing for the beauty of the past.
Michael Wilmington-Chicago Tribune

Days of Heaven never really makes up its mind what it wants to be.
Harold C. Schonberg-New York Times

Almost incontestably the most gorgeously photographed film ever made.
Michael Atkinson-Village Voice

It is the closest to poetry in motion that I have ever seen.
Andrew Ross-Salon.com

Unforgettable 1978 love triangle drama includes violence.
Brian Costello-Common Sense Media

Simply one of the most ravishing films ever made, luminous in a way that no other movie has been.
David Sexton-This is London

A rich and rewarding experience, then as now celebrated for its intricacy and slowness.
Peter Bradshaw-Guardian [UK]

The writing is witty, the story is told with a beguiling simplicity and the period is meticulously realised, not only in farming equipment and costume, but in attitudes and faces.
John Bleasdale-Electric Sheep

A second chance for Malick to cast away the chemical stained print and achieve the film he envisioned, and a second chance for audiences to experience a true classic on the big screen.
Sophie Brown-Little White Lies

Wholly divine.
Matthew Leyland-Total Film

A film about awareness, standing still and being cognizant of the things around you.
Tim Brayton-Antagony & Ecstasy

You can feel Terrence Malick drifting away in this follow-up to his acclaimed debut.
Josh Larsen-LarsenOnFilm

One of the most visually impressive American films ever made, Days of Heaven fulfilled the promise that Terrence Malick had shown in Badlands
Emanuel Levy-EmanuelLevy.Com

It has a visual syntax so eloquent -- its fields of gold cause its quiet characters to stand out like mythic figures -- it would play powerfully as a silent film.
Jeffrey Overstreet-Looking Closer

The images of workers in their landscape look like impressionist paintings that cinematographer Almendros creates on the screen with the natural light of his locations.
Sean Axmaker-Turner Classic Movies Online

A truly beautiful photographed film.
Dennis Schwartz-Ozus' World Movie Reviews

For Malick, Man is just a small part of a world which just keeps going round with or without his petty squabbles, crimes, loves, or melodramatic plots.
Brian Holcomb-PopMatters

This is the towering, unconventional power of a true artist.
Ian Nathan-Empire Magazine

A feast for the eyes and ears.
-Film4

The sound alone is astonishing. Morricone's haunting, wistful score adds measurably to the sweep and timelessness of the film.
-TV Guide's Movie Guide

To hell with equivocation or beating around the bush: Terrence Malick's 1978 Days of Heaven is the greatest film ever made.
Nick Schager-Slant Magazine
