Synopsis
Badlands (1974) — watch online on iFILM. Terrence Malick's debut feature pairs Martin Sheen and Sissy Spacek in a road crime story that still doesn't look like anyone else's film.
South Dakota, 1959. Kit, a garbage collector who carries himself like James Dean, shoots Holly's father for standing between them. The two head for the Montana badlands, and a trail of bodies follows. Sheen plays Kit as a man who genuinely does not understand why what he does is wrong — the smile never leaves, the eyes never explain anything. Spacek narrates the whole thing in her diary voice, calm and girlish and detached, and that gap between tone and event is what makes the film so hard to shake.
Malick had made nothing before this. The film still looks like late-career work — long silences, natural light, the landscape doing half the storytelling. It premiered at Cannes and gave both leads their first real audiences. Stream Badlands (1974) online on iFILM.
