Disarmingly realistic in its depiction of the realities of frontier life, Heartland is a strong antidote to the cliches of traditional Westerns. This semi-documentary slice of life is based on the diaries of Elmore Randall Stewart about her days on the Wyoming frontier in the early 20th century. It's a strongly feminist statement about a woman raising her small daughter alone and scrapping for a living by working for a shy Scottish rancher. Director Richard Pearce brings an endearing touch to a film that is helped greatly by the dazzling cinematography of Fred Murphy. Conchata Ferrell and Rip Torn star in this small film that substitutes veracity for a high-powered plot. Pearce worked as a cinematographer on Woodstock and other documentaries before making his directorial debut. Winner of the 1980 Berlin Golden Bear at the Berlin Film Festival。该片根据爱尔兰共产党领袖詹姆斯·格拉尔顿生平创作，讲述他1933年从美国流亡归来，重启“吉米舞厅”的故事。所谓“吉米舞厅”是指詹姆斯·格拉尔顿在爱尔兰Effrinagh开办的一家舞厅，无数自由的思想家在这里学习、激辩、梦想和娱乐。 不过《吉米的舞厅》很有可能是洛奇拍摄的最后一部故事片了，早在今年8月洛奇长期合作伙伴、电影制片人Rebecca O’Brien就曾向媒体透过口风，说由于年纪和精力的原因，肯·洛奇今后只会拍纪录片和电视剧，不大可能再拍故事片了。。一头扎进历史研究几十年的约瑟芬，在优雅漂亮、光芒四射的姐姐伊丽丝面前简直一无是处：父母不疼、姐姐不爱、女儿不尊、丈夫干脆和情人私奔到非洲养鳄鱼。 某个上流社会的例行晚宴上，伊丽丝谎称正在写一部历史小说，在场的出版商立刻向她表达了出版意愿，实在写不出“杰作”的伊丽丝被迫向约瑟芬求救。碍于经济窘迫，约瑟芬同意捉刀，孰料作品一经面世竟令整个巴黎沸腾，也将姐妹俩的人生彻底颠覆……。
