Alternative Versionen
The UK cinema and video release has been cut by 55 seconds to obtain a '15' certificate. Numerous scenes were affected, particularly the rape and torture shots. In Ireland, the uncut version also initially earned an '18'. It was re-submitted in its cut British version which yet again earned an '18'. This decision was then taken to the Films Appeal Board, who downgraded the certificate to '15' on 16th February 1994. The UK DVD carries an Irish '18' while the British certificate is '15'.

The war from the Vietnamese perspective

"Heaven and Earth" follows the life of a Buddhist Vietnamese peasant girl through the protracted and convulsive American-Vietnam war, the aftermath and reconstruction. A solid three star flick, "H&E" is important inasmuch as it casts in concrete for posterity the Vietnamese perspective of the epic American fiasco in an entertaining movie format. As a stand-alone piece of work, "H&E" may grow somewhat tiresome after 2+ hours under the heavy-handed Stone auteuresmanship. Nonetheless, the film should have value for those who only know about the war from the typically biased American film point of view. (B)
