A River Runs Through It
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A River Runs Through It is a 1992 American film directed by Robert Redford and starring Brad Pitt, Craig Sheffer, Tom Skerritt, Brenda Blethyn, and Emily Lloyd. It is a period drama based on the semi-autobiographical novella A River Runs Through It (1976) written by Norman Maclean (1902-90).

Set in and around the city of Missoula in western Montana, the film tells the autobiographical story about two boys, Norman (Craig Sheffer) and Paul (Brad Pitt) growing up in 1920s Missoula, Montana, under the watchful eye of their father, a Presbyterian minister. Their mornings are spent in school and religious study, while their afternoons are devoted to fly fishing in the nearby Blackfoot River. At home, however, the family's stoic emotions hint at trouble to come - Norman matures and channels his rebellion through his writing while dating Jessie Burns, while his reckless brother Paul turns to gambling and liquor.

As adults, Paul is a rebellious journalist, and his brother, Norman is a level-headed, grounded teacher. The film chronicles their intertwining and often conflicting lives, focusing on Norman's point of view, as they grow up in the shadow of their minister father. A great deal of the film surrounds the men's love of fly fishing for trout in Montana's rivers, and their shared experiences through it while growing up.
