Original Title: I watched Heavens Gate for the first time three weeks ago. I saw it again a week later. I want to see it again this weekend. I can't stop thinking about it, it's so imperfect but my God does it GO FOR IT. What other infamously maligned and/or ridiculously long film have you been obsessed with?


It's such an immense film. It's the only time I saw something on my TV that was so rich with craft it felt giant enough to be on an IMAX screen. On top of that it is the most interesting and deep exploration of race and racism ever done by a white person along with a condemnation of the American spirit as harsh and impactful as the first two Godfather movies.
