Review of Days of Heaven (1978) by Ken S — 18 Jun 2008
Malick's masterpiece. One of the most gorgeously shot films in history. Right up there with The Conformist and Chinatown.
Gere, Adams and Shepard all give exquisitely simple performance that speak volumes.
However the real brilliance lies with it's Mise en Cadre. The collision of images, created through the editing and direction, build a visual poem of powerful emotion.
