Days of Heaven Q&A with Editor Billy Weber
Back to All Events
Event Summary:
Picturehouse 441 and ACE are proud to be partnering on a series of live virtual Q&As as part of our mutual efforts to promote film literacy. Join us for a Q&A with editor Billy Weber, as he discusses his work on 1978 romantic period drama Days of Heaven. Terrence Malick's follow-up to Badlands, is one of the most visually-stunning films ever produced and widely touted as one of the greatest films ever made. Working with master cinematographer Néstor Almendros, Malick conjures painterly images so rich and fully-realized that they boggle the mind. Intensely moving and emotionally rich with a score by the great Ennio Morricone, this Texas-set mini epic demands to be seen on the biggest screen possible. Of particular note is the work of editor Billy Weber who works perfectly in sync with the poetic filmmaker’s rhythms, so much so that the film is considered one of the best-edited by the Motion Picture Editors Guild. The event will be a Zoom Webinar on Monday, February 26 at 8PM ET/5PM PT.
