Days of Heaven is a 1978 American drama film written and directed by Terrence Malick and starring Richard Gere, Brooke Adams, Sam Shepard, and Linda Manz. Set in 1916, it tells the story of Bill and Abby, lovers who travel to the Texas Panhandle to harvest crops for a wealthy farmer. Bill encourages Abby to claim the fortune of the dying farmer by tricking him into a false marriage.
Days of Heaven was Malick's second feature film, after the enthusiastically received Badlands (1973), and was produced on a budget of $3,000,000. Production was particularly troublesome, with a tight shooting schedule and significant budget restraints. Additionally, editing took Malick a lengthy three years, due to difficulty with achieving a general flow and assembly of the scenes. This was eventually solved with an added, improvised narration by Linda Manz. The film was scored by Ennio Morricone and photographed by Nestor Almendros and Haskell Wexler.
The film was not warmly received on its original theatrical release, with many critics finding only its imagery worthy of praise. It was not a significant commercial success, although it did win an Academy Award for Best Cinematography with an additional three nominations for the score, costume design and sound. Malick himself won the Best Director Award at the Cannes Film Festival. Despite initially unfavorable reviews, Days of Heaven has since become one of the most acclaimed films of the 1970s, particularly noted for its cinematography.
Mom and Dad have passed away Didn't love you anyway But you sat there in your room And cried for hours Life is short and time is too And there's nothing you or I can do But watch the little birds and smell the pretty flowers Baby it's a long hard road Sometimes it's too much to bear As long as you want me beside you Darlin' I'll be there Though the sun is shinin' bright Still it seems like darkest night There's not enough of anything, anywhere No matter what you do You just can't seem to make it through Can't find anyone who really cares You know a better world awaits us baby Angels singing up on high 'Cause life is just anticipation of the Days of Heaven Everybody gather 'round Pick up what I'm puttin' down Got to dig this crazy sound It won't hurt you If you got music in your heart You have made a real good start And your love of music never will desert you Baby it's a long hard road Sometimes it seems it's just too much to bear When your foolish friends have desert you You know that I'll be there When your foolish friends desert you
