An exquisite, lyrical film of exceptional
visual beauty, universally acclaimed as a cinematographic
masterpiece.
Set in the early 20th century it is
the story of lovers Abby and Bill and his little sister Linda,
transient labourers who harvest crops in Texas on the farm of a
dying farmer. Abby marries the farmer to inherit his fortune
with deadly results. The naturally lit, sweeping scents were
strongly inspired by Andrew Wyeth’s paintings. Some of these
can be seen in the forthcoming exhibition ‘The
Wyeth Family’.
Oscar for best cinematography, Cannes and
Golden Globe – best director.
