The Stranger

(FILM) All the rapturous bleating about Terrence Malick's recent trifle The New World makes sense only in one context: the absolute glory of the films made before his 20-year hiatus. Days of Heaven, from 1978, is slow and takes visual luxuries that the story—about a love triangle between two migrant workers and a wealthy landowner—can't quite justify. But when you see those blissfully arid images pouring through a new 35mm print, you won't care. (Northwest Film Forum, 1515 12th Ave, 267-5380. 7 and 9 pm, $5—$8.) by Annie Wagner
