Badlands (Terrence Malick, 1973)

“He looked just like James Dean.”

In the tradition of Gun Crazy (Joseph H. Lewis, 1950), Bonnie and Clyde (Arhur Penn, 1967), and later films like Thelma & Louise (Ridley Scott, 1991) — even Vanishing Point (Richard C. Sarafian, 1971) and Thieves Like Us (Robert Altman, 1974)

(DVD)

Highly Recommend: for its mood, its atmosphere, the way in which the story glides from beginning to ending, for the images, the landscapes, the music — the references.
