HEAVEN’S GATE 35mm d. Michael Cimino, 1980 + Intermission at The Prince Charles (07 MAR 19:00):

“A touching tale of love, loss, landscape and the hardscrabble existence of America’s working poor. Set against the bloody backdrop of the Johnson County War at the end of the 19th Century, this is a fraught love story between rogue Federal Marshal Averill (Kris Kristofferson), local madam Ella (Isabelle Huppert) and association mercenary Nate (Christopher Walken). With Vilmos Zsigmond’s spectacular cinematography of dustfilled, snow-peaked landscapes, Cimino brings together all the ingredients for a Western epic.”
