Days of Heaven
Back in 1910, a Chicago steel employee inadvertently kills his manager and flees to the Texas panhandle with his girl friend and sister to work harvesting wheat from the fields of a farmer. A love triangle, a swarm of locusts, a hellish flame --Malick captures it all with dreamlike authenticity, creating once a classic idyll and a evocation of turn of the century labor.
