Badlands (USA/1973/dir. by Terence Malick) 95 minutes
After short stints as a journalist and an academic philosopher, Terrence Malick enrolled at the American Film Institute's new Center for Advanced Studies in 1969 at the age of twenty-six. Four years later, he had completed Badlands. Kit Carruthers (Martin Sheen) and Holly Sargis (Sissy Spacek) are an outlaw couple on the run, loosely based on Charles Starkweather and Caril Ann Fugate, who went on a killing spree in 1959. The film was immediately hailed as a triumph. "Rarely has a first film given such an impression of perfect mastery," wrote the critic Michel Sineux at the time of Badlands ' release. Although Malick continues to direct, he has made only three films since Badlands -- Days of Heaven (1978), The Thin Red Line (1998), and The New World (2005).
