Martin Sheen and Sissy Spacek are Kit and Holly in this incredible debut feature film from elusive writer/director Terrence Malick. South Dakota, 1959. Kit and Holly are adrift in a double fantasy of crime and punishment, a headlong flight from nowhere, to nowhere. They're playing make-believe but the bullets are real. And the bloodshed is very real. Badlands was inspired by true events, the plot and lead characters of Kit and Holly are based on Charles Starkweather and Caril Fugate, who in 1958 embarked on a murder spree that horrified the country. Beautifully shot, flawlessly acted, Badlands is a spellbinding journey, a film to consider alongside Nicholas Ray's 'They Live By Night' and Arthur 'Penn's Bonnie And Clyde'.
