'Final Cut: The Making and Unmaking of Heaven's Gate (DVD Release Version)' (55:10) is narrated by William Dafoe and is frankly brilliant. It begins with the detail that the epic film destroyed the legendary production studio United Artists. We then hit the stars and producer as they tease us with the behind the scenes tragedy that was the production and then we proceed into the details regarding the trust that United Artists had in the director and just how badly it all went. It̷s a very well paced documentary and paints a picture of the bullheaded approach to budget limitations from Michael Cimino's and the studio's soft handling of the project and the ongoing issues surrounding the production. This seems to be a frank and honest account, especially from the United Artists side of things but it sounds like an absolute hell on earth process and makes for a great behind the scenes look at an epic power struggle.
