Got a love the final thing Martin Sheen says. It’s almost like as if he isn’t talking to Sissy Spacek’s character but rather us, the audience. A sort of rhetorical question... despite us knowing his fate. Spacek’s small wince of a smile as she looks out the window wistfully says a lot about her character. A truly remarkable film you’ll only see once in a lifetime.
Interesting. I see his question "you think they'll take that into consideration?" not as a question about the legal authorities, but the ones at heaven's gate.... As he says that, the shot fades to the heavens.....
The cloud shot and cut to black with the end music was perfect. It set the story as a wasteland story, with Sheen as a false saviour / messiah figure (as reflected in the poster image). The music might be a theme for the entry of the king - a counterpoint to the false one of the narrative. What is brilliant is that the music climax is outside the narrative space of the film - it comes in after the narrative ends with the credits - placing it in a different dimension. Cinematic art.
He probably has hyperphantasia. Allows him to see events from a perspective which allows... almost a narrative chain of events to take place. He sees America.
Hyperphantasia. Poor bastard. America cultivates some of the brightest GENIUS on the face of the planet... but as Bill Maher once said in an interview with Shapiro, sorry no more room! There's only so much place for genius, no matter how powerful or influential. But, we can remember his story, and maybe, just maybe... we can prepare for change when we see it. Something to take into consideration.

Such a haunting melancholy ending.

That cloud shot
Spot on, my friend !
eerily beautiful
A beautifully shot and edited concluding scene. Topped off by that music. And man that dialogue.
I absolutely love that it ended in the sky idk something about it just feels so ethereal
Terrence Malick is a master-director;
I mean, in all his movies he could put some "mystique" on the subject.

I once had a girlfriend just like this girl. But even more freckles.
Martin Sheen in this movie (unfortunately) shaped my taste in men.. good looking but good for nothin lmao
I love sissy spacick

I don't think that's the original soundtrack. The version I saw had a different soundtrack at the end.
Look up Carl Orff "Gassenhauer".
You’re probably thinking of the piano version. This is the xylophone version
anyone know how to find this song
Shazam maybe
@@jiddern973 This one is super hard to find but I believe that's "Duet" by Jean-Bernard Marie
Erik Satie -- Trois Morceaux en forme de poire: VI. En plus. Calme. "Duet" interprets Satie.
@@gratiamephpheta those are the original piano versions though, does anyone know how i might find this particular version?
@@ConeheadMerlin This particular rendition was produced for the film. Badlands credits only Satie.

WTF does this have to do with a movie about two serial killers, trumpy weirdo?
