Heaven's Gate
Harvard grad James Averill (Kris Kristofferson) is the president of prosperous Jackson County, Wyo., even when a struggle contrasts between the area's poverty stricken immigrants and its own wealthy cattle farmers. The connected ranch proprietors fight immigrants together with the help of Nathan Champion (Christopher Walken), a mercenary competing with Averill for its love of regional madam Ella Watson (Isabelle Huppert). As the battle subsided, Champion and Averill begin to question their own decisions.
