Review of Days of Heaven (1978) by Tanner B — 21 Apr 2016
Days of Heaven (1978) ????
Hard to put into words this movie's visual beauty. Néstor Almendros won richly deserved Oscar for his almost overwhelmingly beautiful photography in eloquent story of two farm laborers, a man and his lover, whom he convinces her to marry their rich but dying boss so that they can have a claim to his fortune. Breathtaking to say the least, with many layered meanings and images, nothing short from a master visionary, Terrance Malick, in his finest film to date. Extraordinarily good on every level.
