ABOUT THE FILM: HEAVEN’S GATE tells the story of a Harvard graduate lawyer, Averill, and his attempts to help a community of European immigrants out West in their struggle with a brutal cattle owners’ association, depicting the real-life bloody conflict of the Johnson County War in 1892. At its heart lies a fraught love story between rogue Federal Marshal Averill, local madam Ella and association mercenary Nate, all led by fantastic performances. Vilmos Zsigmond’s cinematography provides as much dramatic pull, capturing a spectacular dust-filled, snow-peaked setting that evokes not only the enormity of Cimino’s Western tale but the awesome nature of America’s landscape and its historical significance in the film’s post Civil War era.
