    If the skating fiddle player is all you come away with from this film, then you are missing the point of an incredible piece of cinematography. Amongst Michael Cimino’s finest work aided by an excellent cast.

      That skating fiddler, David Mansfield, composed all the music for the movie. He was 23.

    Saw this movie when it was released and later at a screening at the Museum of the Moving Image in London (better theater) have always loved it though Cimino chose to film in the Glacier NP area in Montana instead of Johnson county WY where the story was based. The history is compelling and does not show the government and cattlemen of 1890 in a good light. Masterpiece

    Cimino owned the land he was leasing to the studio for production, a detail he conveniently omitted. This is why he had sets torn town and rebuilt because "the street wasn't wide enough", he was getting paid twice.

      I know that’s the popular version of the story, but not even close to the truth. Transamerica stock dipped a whopping one point when Heavens Gate debuted to hideous reviews, and made it back the next day.
      UA was later sold to MGM for more than 3 times what Transamerica paid for it.
      This movie was certainly a financial liability, but it didn’t bankrupt anything.

      @@theylied1776 Hate to break this to you, but MGM didn’t even own United Artists when Heaven’s Gate was produced or even released. So your premise that MGM was bankrupted by this film is ridiculous.
      Transamerica owned UA at the time and shrugged off the loss, but it ultimately cost UA VP’s Stephen Bach and David Fields their jobs. Moonraker actually cost more to make than Heavens Gate and kept United Artists in the black that year.
      Plenty of books you can read for the facts, including Stephen Bach’s “Final Cut,” which is all about UA and the making of Heaven’s Gate, and the new book, “Cimino: The Deer Hunter, Heaven’s Gate and the Price of a Vision,” by Charles Elton. That’s all about director Michael Cimino.

    I'm surprised at how many people think this movie was great or a masterpiece. I watched the entire uncut version and it was excruciating. I mean its possibly the worst "major" motion picture ive ever seen. For someone like Cimino who had intense attention to detail yet in 4 hours the story was disjointed and not cohesive the sound was awful and scenes went on and on like the roller rink dance sequence which basically done twice when Cimino got his point across the first time! There was rambling dialog especially John Hurts character and then the million dollar scene of nothing but dust. Couldn't lots of fans create dust and not cost a million dollars? The movie was and is horrendous and I tend to be extremely generous when I critique films. Heavens Gate was a rambling mess.

      I've seen three versions of Heaven's Gate: the 219-minute version, the 149-minute version, and the digitally restored 216-minute version. The 149-minute version is faster paced and has better sound but the plot is less coherent. The 149-minute version rearranged the order of scenes, cut a lot of stuff out, and added things that were not in the 219-minute version.
      The 216-minute version is similar to the 219-minute version except the intermission was cut, some scenes were shortened, and the film's colours were adjusted to remove the sepia tint that's in the other versions. In my opinion the 216-minute version is the best version.
      Personally I think Heaven's Gate is neither a masterpiece nor one of the worst movies ever made. It's an ambitious but flawed film that comes close to greatness at times.
