Summary |
Michael Cimino's controversial epic of corrupted idealism, set during the bloody Johnson County Wars of the 1890s, was detested by a majority of film critics upon its release and is now the subject of the 're-revisionism' that affects the reputation of many films and works of art. Some critics now regard the film (that almost brought down an American film studio) as a masterpiece - a film ahead of its time |
