Review of Heaven's Gate (1980) by Carolyn G — 27 Mar 2009
This was a great cast thrown into a bloated, dragged-out, pretentious script. Had Cimino edited this thing (which was actually very beautifully shot) w/ any sense of restraint, he could have cobbled out a decent flick from the performances he got.
Instead, he lost his mind and left us with a final cut that is almost double what it should have been. Plus, the ending ticked me off...
