Considered by many as a masterpiece of 1970s American cinema, this gorgeous pastoral work tells the emotional story of two men in love with the same woman. Set against the rustling fields and endless skies of the Texas panhandle, Bill (Gere), a fugitive from the slums of Chicago, finds himself pitted against a shy, rich Texan (Shepard) for the love of Abby (Adams). In this new 4K restoration, elusive writer and director Terrence Malick (The Tree of Life, The Thin Red Line) follows up 1973’s Badlands with another extraordinary cinematic achievement of sight and sound.
