Viewing Notes

Figured I’d catch up on my Terrance Malick now that his Trees of Life is getting closer. Dropped in Days of Heaven (1978), a film I wouldn’t have bothered with back in the 80s. Now I eat it up. Cinematography is breathtaking. For real. Richard Gere is also pretty damn good. One to see on the big screen given the chance.

(Note: Haha! I did end up seeing this on the big screen 2 years later!)
