Badlands

Jul 6—Jul 10, 2024
    Part of
  • Two Women: Early Films of Sissy Spacek and Shelley Duval
  • and
  • BAM Film 2024
Directed by Terrence Malick (1973)
With Sissy Spacek, Martin Sheen, Warren Oates

In his revelatory debut feature, Terrence Malick transformed a shocking 50s true crime saga into sublime pulp poetry as Sissy Spacek’s baton-twirling South Dakota teen joins up with Martin Sheen’s troubled greaser for a cross-country joyride that soon turns deadly. Set against the mythic landscapes of the Midwest, Badlands is both a one-of-a-kind couple-on-the-run neo-noir and a cosmic meditation on the American Dream.
