Days of Heaven

“Days of Heaven, ladies and gentlemen. Days of Heaven. Days of Heaven might be the unanimous… one of the most unanimous films that all filmmakers love, enjoy, and respect and admire. Terrence Malick is also one of my mentors, I’m deeply honored to say.... Days of Heaven, because I’ve seen this movie about a thousand times.”

“Days of Heaven. Terrence Malick tested various couples to star in this film, and Brooke Adams and Richard Gere were one couple and John Travolta and I were the other couple. Brooke Adams has since become a very close friend of mine, and I’m really glad she did it because she was wonderful in it. What I learned, too, was how a filmmaker can make a film like this, “We’re taking all the dialog out of the script.” When I read the script, there was a lot of dialog.”

“Days of Heaven, Terrence Malick. Incredible. I mean, any film buff that you talk to is going to tell you to watch this movie. It’s perfect. I mean, even the cover – this and The Reflecting Skin were a huge inspiration for the last song on my last record, just those fields of wheat, the “Amber Waves.” It’s a masterclass in cinematography. It really is just… Every time I sit and put it on, it’s one of those films that can’t help but drag you in and make you live in it for a moment.”

“It feels like when we watch Days of Heaven together I felt like that movie must have been done that way too they probably shot at you know 5:00 a. M. And 6:00 p. M. It's so beautiful where is Days of Heaven... Beautiful Days of Heaven it's a classic worth revisiting it needs to be done.”
