Lightyear Entertainment has provided a complete press release with a new street date for its upcoming Blu-ray release of Diane Keaton's Heaven (1987), which is now scheduled to arrive on the market on February 17.
Description: Though Diane Keaton appeared in over 60 movies and produced nearly a dozen, for her debut as a feature film director, the iconic actress, long preoccupied with the afterlife, chose to investigate what people really think about the great beyond. HEAVEN, the result of her inquiry, is a free-wheeling and off-beat pastiche of interviews, clips from films such as Metropolis, Green Pastures and Stairway to Heaven and songs that explore different ideas of what paradise may have to offer. This February, Lightyear Entertainment presents Keaton's acclaimed feature-length documentary meticulously remastered in HD for heavenly viewing when it's released as a limited-edition Blu-ray, as well as on VOD and all leading digital platforms.
With a varied group of interviewees -- a collection of fundamentalists, visionaries and people-next-door featuring -- among others, her parents and sister, boxing promoter Don King, Victoria Sellers and Swami Prem Amitabh, she queries "What kind of rewards do you think heaven holds?", "What does God look like?" and "Is there sex in heaven?". The answers are honest and often outrageous resulting in an unforgettable film that could be characterized as Norman Rockwell meets Salvador Dali.
It seems that heaven is one of the few subjects on which simply everyone has an opinion, and Keaton's film, featuring a score from Oscar, Golden Globe and Grammy-winning composer Howard Shore and a soundtrack featuring songs by Lionel Richie, The Residents, The Dream Academy, Sam Cooke and more, is a study that is at once both affectionate and ironic, revealing how religion, Hollywood and songs have reflected and influenced man's view of the hereafter.
Following a successful theatrical re-release in 2025, HEAVEN will continue to play in select markets around the world in 2026 including New York, Los Angeles, Boston, Toronto and Hong Kong.
