About this product

Product Information

An epic post-Vietnam look at the Western genre and the exploitation of immigrant settlers, HEAVEN'S GATE is based on the historical 1890s Johnson County War incident in Wyoming. Visually remarkable sequences and a haunting score frame the story. Sheriff James Averill (Kris Kristofferson), educated in the east and full of idealism, attempts to protect immigrant farmers when wealthy land barons hire mercenaries to settle their scores. The hired guns, including Nathan Champion (Christopher Walken), plan to kill a number of farmers whose names appear on a death list and whom the farmers believe have been stealing their cattle. Backed by the army and the federal government, the mercenaries prepare to attack the farmers when Averill and Champion clash over the impending massacre and Ella Watson (Isabelle Huppert), a local prostitute and woman they both love. Shot right after Cimino's triumphant DEER HUNTER, the film is a violent, unsentimental look at the American frontier.

  • Excessive in all aspects; worth a look.

    The movie is too long, the story too convoluted. However, the cinematography is good, and the story relates to immigrants and injustice, very relevant to our times. I wish it had English subtitles, as much of the dialogue gets lost in all the noise. OK for an "off" night; better than its reputation.

  • Surprisingly Good!

    After hearing that Heaven’s Gate was a bust but worth watching for the cinematography and period accuracy, My husband and I gave it a try. It is not only a stunningly beautiful movie, but surprisingly very good. The scene shot at the roller rink (called Heavens Gate) was our favorite. You have to see it for yourself to understand why.
