The first uses two Southern California pet cemeteries as the bases for a profound and funny rumination on love, loss, and industry; the second travels to a languorous southern backwater and meets a handful of fascinating folks - a determined turkey hunter, a curious minister, a laconic policeman - engaged in individualistic, sometimes absurd pursuits. Morris consistently creates humane portraits of true candor, and these early works remain two of his greatest and most provocative films. SET CONTAINS: DIRECTOR-APPROVED DVD SPECIAL EDITION FEATURES: * New 2K digital restorations of both films, supervised by director Errol Morris * New interviews with Morris * Werner Herzog Eats His Shoe (1980), a twenty-minute film by Les Blank featuring Herzog fulfilling a bet intended to inspire Morris to complete his first feature * Footage of Herzog professing his admiration for Gates of Heaven at the 1980 Telluride Film Festival * PLUS: An essay by critic Eric HynesDVDs ARE REGION 1 UNLESS OTHERWISE STATED Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
