Days of Heaven
1978
****
Director: Terrence Malick
Cast: Richard Gere, Brooke Adams, Sam Shepard, Linda Manz, Robert Wilke

A beautiful, tragic love story between two migrant workers set in the wheatfields of America in the end of the 19th century. Thoughtful and demanding, like other Malick films. A visually stunning moodpiece which deservedly picked up an Academy Award for its cinematography.
