'Days of Heaven' is a mesmerizing film that captures the beauty and calm activities in life, while having this unexplained sadness underneath. At the end, you learn that memories, good or bad, will occasionally haunt your thoughts and emotional state - since the film is about someone reflecting on their memory.
My relationship with Terrence Malick can be complicated, but when he scores, it's remarkable.
One of the highest forms of art.
