- Heaven’s Gate (1980)
Modern Trailer Edit by Dan McBride
Part of my trailer project - breathing some new life into older, forgotten or overlooked films.
Mainly to spread awareness of these great films and hopefully inspire more people to
seek them out.
Director - Michael Cimino
Synopsis - During the Johnson County War in 1890 Wyoming, a sheriff born into wealth does his best to protect immigrant farmers from rich cattle interests.
Yep, I did it! The infamous Heaven’s Gate is one of the most divisive films in the history of cinema. Despite all the vitriol that’s been thrown its way, I’m going to admit that I think it’s much better than you’ve probably been lead to believe.
Love it or hate it, I think you’d have to agree that the cinematography is in a class all it’s own. So consider this trailer a celebration of the mesmerizing work of Vilmos Zsigmond, one of the true artists. -- DM

If this trailer had been dropped back in the day, at the time of this movie's release, you could bet this movie would've been a massive success! People would've been talking how beautiful and stunning this looks.
Thanks so much, I'd love to think that!
Despite its controversial production history, Heaven's Gate is a superbly beautiful movie it's honestly one of the most beautiful western ever made along with "The Assassination of Jesse James" I don't mind the run time either
Imagine Michael Ciminos career if this was the trailer that entered cinemas in 1980.
Little Time, a little luck and God's will for better prospects brother.. Just hope alone keeps every talented director at their loved craft.
Finally, a good trailer for Heaven's Gate.
This is the last great western, and holy moly what a great picture to end on! I loved this trailer.
I mean it’s real good.
Unforgiven way better tho boss.
@@grantterlecky1248 It's subjective. I saw Unforgiven and it's really good but when I mean "great western" I mean these types of films. Unforgiven is incredible but it's like a metamodernistic approach to the genre.
Another incredible trailer! You just don’t miss do you?! Inspiring stuff.
Amazing trailer as always, thank you so much in particular for choosing ‘Heaven’s Gate’.
An incredibly tortured film over history, an incredible shame that it was mutilated by the industry, it’s an incredible piece of film making and artistry on the grandest scale.
So very happy to see it having such a strong revival and positive reassessment.
From the reputation of this film, I was hesitant to watch it. This trailer is great, but what really sold it for me was 'A misunderstood magnum opus' because that kind of movie will always get my ass in the seat.
This is to say that every little detail you think to add into your trailer edits makes the trailer better for what a trailer is supposed to do. You might not be a director, but you're one Hell of an editor! Cheers 🍻🍻
Thank you so much! You know it's funny, I was on the fence about using that quote. Ultimately though, I felt it summed it up better than anything else. I'm glad it got your attention!
Masterpiece
Excellent work
One of my favorite movies! Thank you for this trailer, it was much needed! Phenomenal job btw, the cut of the roller skating between action sequences gives me chills!
Yeah- that part stood out for me as well : )
This honestly might be the best trailer work I’ve ever seen. It touches on so much of the film without ruining anything and tells the plot smartly and is edited together in such a way that is intense and awe inspiring. I get chills watching the trailer, but I also get chills thinking about the trailer. UNBELIEVABLE WORK
Wow hell of a comment! Thank you so much for the high praise. I hope you are following my work here on the channel!
Amazing!!
Great work on this wonderful movie!
Wow. This is truly excellent.
Great trailer! I could imagine rushing to see the movie based on this trailer, only to be frustrated by Cimino's languid pacing -- but that would be Cimino's fault, not yours! Excellent work, as always. I'm a big fan of your Thief, Driver, and Sorcerer trailers. Every time a notification pops up with new work from you, I stop to check it out #subscriberforlife
one of the most powerful and flawless films ever made. goosebumps. great trailer.
I don't know if I would call it flawless, but it's certainly much better than people have been led to believe over the years!
@@DMEdit it's up there with one of the greats for me. and it has always been weird to me that this picture has either "misunderstood" or "not bad" rep. Was knocked out the first time I saw it.
@@DMEdit Agree 100%. Even Cimino said no edit of the film was perfect (though the final edit that's on BluRay was the best). But if one calls it a flawed masterpiece, I wouldn't have a problem with that.
Another great one.
Fantastic edit! I cannot give you enough praise for putting this together. Impeccable!
This would be a great intro for an Oliver Harper retrospective.
This trailer is so good I don’t even care that Isabelle Huppert’s name is misspelled.
Well, that's embarassing
I want to watch this movie now
Terry O'Quinn sighting!
Another epic trailer.I have this movie in my collection for a while but after this trailer it's gonna be another screening for me :)
That's great to hear! For me it's one of the great endings I can always come back to it
Fuck this movie is so good I'm watching it again
Broke: making your audience sit through ten minutes of credits to see a setup scene for the next movie in the series
Woke: making your audience sit through four minutes of black screen before the credits even start
In all seriousness though I appreciate what a reward this movie is for being a patient watcher
Heaven's Gate is like the Great Gatsby of Westerns
I'm really coming to appreciate the tragedy of this film...
The promise the West held for everybody and how it eventually just ended up being the same as everything back East
Beautifully put
I am not a fan of western movies. But this trailer is great. Guess I have to watch this damn very long movie now.
1:42 *Huppert ;)
This trailer is a piece of art but you forgot to credit Sam Waterston
You are right about this. It's not that I forgot, but I should have made time and space for him. He's great in this film.
hey! i love ur account sm😭💗 can u recommend sum films/series that has a surreal/dreamlike/fantasy/liminal/weird vibes?? thank you in advance!!
For sure, this is very much a favorite genre of mine and you can def find some films that fit this bill if you dig around my channel (my trailer for Black Moon comes to mind). Also check out my trailers for Pastoral: To Die In The Country, Messiah Of Evil (though that's more horror), Stalker (more philosophical), Phase IV, and The Man Who Fell To Earth.
Some recent films I've been watching that you would probably enjoy include a German film called Laurin (very dreamlike atmosphere), Morgiana (gothic fairy tale with drug induced vibes) and a very strange French film called Litan (this feels straight up like watching a dream unfold). That's just off the top of my head - I hope to do trailers for all of these at some point. Also, if you're not familiar with Jodorowsky, well, The Holy Mountain is the king of surreal/weird vibes. Cheers!
@@DMEdit omg i love uuu thank you sm😭😭 i need more😭
Please do a trailer for German film Mephisto 1979
I have not seen this, but man, the trailer is certainly not doing this film any favors is it?
Hmmm young Jeff Bridges looks just like Kurt Russell
If this film had been a box office success , Hollywood would have been completely different by now. More independence to the creators and less interference of the producers and studios.
A beautifully crafted film visually but the script is just complete nonsense and characters are woefully undeveloped and miscast. Remembered today only by Cimino's reckless overspending (nearly bankrupted UA) and autocratic behaviour while making the picture. Pretty much everyone had a bad time working on the film except the cinematographer.
Unfortunately this film was doomed before it was ever released. Bad press killed it before it ever had a chance, the studio released a bastardized cut, it was unceremoniously dumped into (very limited) theaters and it had one of the worst trailers I've ever seen.
That being said - I don't know if Hollywood would have been any different. Cimino wasn't the only maverick out there abusing his position. And with genre fare like Star Wars and Jaws raking in the dough, it was pretty clear that the tides were beginning to change. Though I also like to imagine a "what if" scenario!
I'd have to disagree that this is the only reason it's remembered. It's definitely gained a bit of a cult status since the director's cut has been made available, and it has a lot of champions nowadays. It's flawed sure, but I actually love the casting. And the ending really hits me in a way that most films never do. To each their own of course!
@@DMEdit I recommend watching "Final Cut: The making and Un-making of Heavens Gate" documentary. Sure there were similar "mad genious" directors like Friedkin and Peckinpah around but none abused their power like Cimino did. This and subsequent films by Cimino only makes me wonder how come Deer Hunter is such masterpiece. But nevertheless, excellent job with the trailer as always!
@@DMEdit In Europe the shortened version was never released in theaters and the film got overall praise and high regard.
while i liked the story of heavens gate i thought it was too long
I just watched the original trailer before this one and the difference is night and day. Studios marketed this horribly
You just made me order the Criterion bluray after watching this new trailer. Loved this flick since I first saw it on HBO when I was a kid. The roller skating scene in the barn is an all timer imo as is Walken's death. I recommend the directors cut to everyone. I only viewed it recently and it adds so much depth and meaning to Heaven's Gate.
spoiled the film, great.
fucking r tard could maybe put a spoiler alert
