The Deer Hunter
This is one of the most brilliantly created pieces of work I have ever seen. Quentin Tarantino described The Deer Hunter as an epic in every sense - in aim, in length, in intention and in emotion. The film is comprised of three main acts over three hours, and not one second of it is wasted. There is no scene, no moment and no piece of dialogue from the masterpiece that is the screenplay that is not needed or superfluous. The dialogue and language in this movie is pure gold, and the cinematography is breathtaking. To any fans of John Cazale, it was also his last feature film, before his death from cancer in March 1978.
Michael Cimino's reputation was permanently tarnished by the incredible finacial failure of his following picture, Heaven's Gate (1980). However Cimino's The Deer Hunter remains a masterpiece in the truest sense of the word, earning five Academy Awards including Best Picture and Best Supporting Actor for Christopher Walken, who is phenomenal is this film, and in the opinion of some, actually outshines Robert De Niro.
