“They say you can make a great documentary about anything, as long as you see it well enough and truly, and this film proves it. Gates of Heaven...is about a couple of pet cemeteries and their owners. But then Gates of Heaven grows ever so much more complex and frightening, until at the end it is about such large issues as love, immortality, failure, and the dogged elusiveness of the American Dream.”
