Badlands is a 1973 film directed by Terrence Malick from his own script, starring Martin Sheen and Sissy Spacek. Warren Oates and Ramon Bieri are also featured. Malick has a small speaking part although he does not receive an acting credit.
The film was edited by Robert Estrin; Billy Weber is credited as associate editor and both he and the art designer Jack Fisk went on to work on Malick's next three features Days of Heaven (1978), The Thin Red Line (1998) and The New World (2005).
Though Malick paid close attention to period detail, he did not want it to overwhelm the picture. "I tried to keep the 1950's to a bare minimum," he said. "Nostalgia is a powerful feeling; it can drown out anything. I wanted the picture to set up like a fairy tale, outside time."
