Heaven's Gate

Based on the Johnson County War of 1892, Michael Cimino's epic western is now hailed as a masterpiece of American Cinema and is presented here in its newly and definitive director's cut.

Harvard graduate James Averill has returned to Wyoming as a Marshall and is facing growing divisions and escalating tensions in the local community. The powerful government-backed cattle barons are waging war on the immigrant settlers they brand 'thieves and anarchists' and are drawing up a 'death list' for their hired mercenaries to act upon. As hostilities mount, the inevitability of a full-scale and blood war edges even closer.
