Ive just realised - all my life I thought Kit - the guy - was the psychopath who had taken the innocent girl along with him but NO - she is the psychopath. HE does everything FOR her, thats why she is narrating it
It's one of my all-time favourite films. I don't know how many times I've seen it. Thanks for sharing this deeply moving 2 minutes 50 seconds. Greetings from the Emerald Isle 🇮🇪.
That was a strange, strange movie. I don't understand exactly why it's so compelling. The things Kit and Holly do are monstrous, and yet, somehow, you can't help liking them. The painfully beautiful theme helps, I think... it makes the movie almost timeless and somehow casts them, Kit in particular, more as forces of nature than human beings... something like tornadoes that sweep in, wreak chaos, and then are gone.
The first time I had heard Gassenhauer was in Badlands and was completely taken with it but it took me ages, a couple of years at least, to find it. Brilliantly simple music.
Ditto. Took me years to find it. I remember it from watching the movie back in the 80s, waaaay before there was an internet to tell me in a few seconds what it was. :)
Gassenhauer was written by Carl Off and Gunild Keetman and was included in the first volume of Orff Schulwerk which was published in 1925. These pieces were written to be played by children and are part of the Orff philosophy in Music Education. This philosophy is still popular around the world today.
Badlands is a brilliant film. That being said, do not confuse it for one moment with the realities of Charles Starkweather's killing spree. Starkweather was just about the most unlikable criminal to ever gain notoriety. He is nothing like Martin Sheen's oddly charismatic Kit Carruthers. Still, a beautiful film that I have watched many times.
Must be Charles's physical attributes and that he was not intelligent or his James Dean impression was poor. Not a spree killer, but Bundy was sometimes good-looking, charismatic, and likable. Kemper was very intelligent and conversational.
Just one further thing, why did they not include the door scene in the film with Terence Malick as the salesman and Martin Sheen in this Film Montage..

Badlands is a masterpiece ...nuff said
Charles Starkweather would agree.
I can’t find the words to describe this movie. Yes, a masterpiece.
Ive just realised - all my life I thought Kit - the guy - was the psychopath who had taken the innocent girl along with him but NO - she is the psychopath.
HE does everything FOR her, thats why she is narrating it
This is one of the best modern Film Noir.
Yeah. Its a masterpiece
This theme music is hauntingly beautiful.....I remember watching this film as a teenager and it's been with me since
Same here -

As I get older this show just gets better. The writing is phenomenal

‘painfully beautiful’ …
‘forces of nature, tornadoes …’

AMAZING MOVIE !!
I think tonight. Yes it's time for a re-watch.

Agreed. It’s only inspired by their story. Gotta take it on its own terms. I’m sure Bonnie and Clyde weren’t good company either

Killed like 10 people in 1 months time even a baby dude was not charismatic as the movie.
Killers aren’t good company at all, @peterzang. It’s like, you lay down with dogs, you get fleas. 😮
In case you're wondering, yes, Badlands was Quentin Tarantino's inspiration for True Romance, both the story and the theme music.
excellently edited
Rhythm, harmony, melody, and murder.
"Badlands": It gleams, it glitters, it bleeds.
Awesome
Never seen it but I’d like to
Just one further thing, why did they not include the door scene in the film with Terence Malick as the salesman and Martin Sheen in this Film Montage..
0:14 Emilio Estervez and Charlie Sheen
So Hans Zimmer totally ripped this for True Romance right ?
I don't who thought of using this music for this movie but it just works. To me, it's always sounded more "American" than German.🤷
The film's theme music is from a suit of music for children by Carl Orff I am sure the suit of music is called "Poetica"
It's the music from True Romance
It's the other way around you blasfemist ;),
this Carl Orf version is 60 year older and the Malick movie is 25 years older
Nope! That a Hanz Zimmer track. Similarish!
Both "Natural Born Killers" and "True Romance" ripped off the music. But they both pale greatly in comparison to Badlands.
The track "You're so cool " from True Romance is Zimmer's tribute to Malick's inclusion of this music in Badlands.
see true romance written by tarantino composed by hans zimmer almost identical
yh it was ripped off of this
