Movie Description
Terrence Malick's second film is a lyrical screen poem about life in America at the turn of the century. When a Chicago steel-mill worker is fired after a fight with his supervisor, he hops a train for the Great Plains with his girlfriend and his younger sister. The trio join itinerant workers following the farming season and find a place with a quiet, lonely landowner. As the year passes and the harvest nears, a fateful love triangle develops, with fiery consequences. The performances match the moody compositions in this elegy for the premodern prairie, which now stands firmly as one of the most beautiful motion pictures of all time.

Credits
Producer:Bert Schneider
Cast:Bob Wilke, Brooke Adams, Jackie Shultis, Linda Manz, Richard Gere, Sam Shepard, Stuart Margolin, Timothy Scott

Notes
The majority of the film was photographed at the "magic hour," just before the sun sets, giving the film a naturally luminous glow.

Haskell Wexler replaced director of photography Nestor Almendros when the latter had to leave due to another contractual obligation.

DAYS OF HEAVEN was originally screened in 70mm.

Terrence Malick, known for his meticulousness, took two years to edit the film.

Editorial Reviews
"...DAYS OF HEAVEN is a dramatically moving and technically breathtaking American art film, one of the great cinematic achievements of the last decade..."
Variety - Hege.
