#137. Days of Heaven
https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/e/e7/Daysofheavenposter.jpg
Dir: Terrence Malick
Genre: Drama
Year: 1978

Prepare yourself for one of the prettiest looking movies ever made. Days of Heaven is an absolute cinematographic masterpiece. The framing, the lighting, and the sprawling Heartland backdrop makes for a stunning display of cinematic prowess rarely matched to this day.

This movie, along with Badlands (which I actually don't really care for) basically made Terrence Malick the most sought-after director in America. And then he disappeared for twenty years. But it's a testament to the gorgeous direction and biblical storytelling that people were still pining for his return two decades later. If you watch Days of Heaven, you'll easily understand why.
