I Cry During Sad Movies(both)

Movie of the week.
A River Runs Through It. 1992
Tom Skeritt, Brad Pitt, Craig Sheffer
Directed by Robert Redford.

Norman Maclean wrote, A River Runs Through It and Other Stories, which was a memoir of his family in Montana in the 1920s.
Published in 1976 when Maclean was 74

“The book was a love poem to Norman’s family,” director Robert Redford told the New York Times. “They were a deeply loving family, but the members didn’t understand each other.
Their lives went into that dark area when the questions become: How does one ask for help? How does one give help? What part of oneself does one give?
All these questions are rolled into the big question of love and helping and understanding one another. Those are the questions that interested me.”
My rating 10/10

@Gusman beautiful scenery wasn't it? Not all the places there look like that though.

@cherokeepatti Some of the scenes were filmed in different areas because modern society had encroached.

When I'm alone in the half light of the canyon, all existence seems to fade to a being with my soul and memories, and the sound of the Big Blackfoot River and a four count rhythm, and the hope that the fish will rise.
Eventually all things merge into one, and a River Runs Through it.
