Terrence Malick's Days of Heaven is a visually stunning film that is more atmospheric than narrative. It tells the story of a love triangle between a farm laborer, his girlfriend, and a wealthy landowner set in the early 20th century. However, the plot takes a back seat to the film's cinematography capturing the golden-hued fields and ever-changing skies. Malick's preference for natural light and whispered voiceovers sets the atmosphere of the movie. It is more about the emotions the film evokes than about the story, thanks to its meditative pacing and visuals.
