Watch this movie with poetic eyes

Just like the beginning, the end is poetic; we don't know who the heroine is leaving with. A clear beginning, a hazy ending. I can only say that the director is too good! From the beginning to the end of the film, the aesthetic style is refreshing; the images of wind, wheat fields, castles, grasslands, rivers, woods, dusk... these images are just like wonderful places in life; just like the hazy feeling of love, these things are indescribable.

The film's narrative technique is like an elderly old man telling a story, plain and calm. The child's narration, the little girl's perspective is like a piece of white paper, and the story is laid out. The film began to seem to explain their relationship, but it was not a couple, but a sibling. After marrying the farmer, it was a small climax. Is it a play? Is it true? Indescribable. In fact, there is no lack of such ambiguities in life, just being close and distant, just like the little girl said: There are never perfect people in this world. Half of them live with demons and half with angels.

In short, this is a good movie to watch after calming down

Days of Heaven quotes

  • Linda: Are we gonna stay?

    Bill: If she wants to.

    Linda: You'd rather go?

    Bill: I'd rather be the King of Siam.

  • Linda: He was tired of livin' like the rest of them - nosin' around like a pig in a gutter. He wasn't in the mood no more. He figured there must be somethin' wrong with 'em - the way they always got no luck - and they oughta get it straightened out. He figured some people need more than they got, other people got more than they need. Just a matter of gettin' us all together.
