Who knows what an American movie is called?

In Montana at the beginning of the 20th century, in a picturesque place, there lived the McLean family, a Scottish immigrant. My father, Will McClane, is a village priest. He is cold and tenacious. Norman, the eldest son, is very much like his father. He is well-bred and has the temperament of reading and taking exams. The youngest son, Paul, is aggressive by nature and has a wild nature. Father and son have a common hobby, that is: fly bait fishing. Montana at that time was a magical and unexpected place, and the big river flowing through it constituted their life. Father and son often stand in thigh-less running water, taking moths as bait and indulging in fishing. Sometimes they compare the size of the salmon they catch, and sometimes they talk intimately.

As time went on, the two brothers grew up. Norman went to Dartmouth College and Paul became a reporter for the local newspaper. Their relationship gradually drifted apart, but their common interest in fishing reunited their families. Six years later, after graduating from Norman University, he returned to his hometown. He found himself unfamiliar with fishing techniques, but his brother Paul has become a good fisherman. On the picturesque riverside, father and son are intoxicated with the wonderful harvest given by nature as always. Green grass, inaccessible, looks like flocks of wild deer, ... what a beautiful picture of the country.

Soon, Norman found that Paul was caught in the bad habit of drinking, often went to casinos after drinking, and was heavily in debt. One day, Paul got into a drunken fight because others said his girlfriend was of Indian origin. Norman bailed him out of the police station. Norman wanted to help his younger brother very much, but he often felt at a loss when faced with Paul who didn't listen to advice. He found that Paul was a genius in fishing, but he was very stupid in life. Dirty casinos are in sharp contrast to pure rivers.

Norman was scolded by his girlfriend for a trifle. Soon, Norman was hired as an English teacher by the University of Chicago. He told the news to his girlfriend and they got back together. Paul took Norman to the casino to congratulate him, but he didn't want to lose everything. Norman once again advised Paul to leave here and start a new life in Chicago, but Paul replied that he would never leave Montana.

The next day, two brothers and their father went fishing. Summer is coming to an end, and autumn scenery begins to appear on both sides of the river. Being far away from home, Norman couldn't help feeling a little disappointed. On this day, Paul caught a big salmon, and he was dragged into the water by the fish, but he still held on to the fishing rod and went downstream, and finally caught the huge salmon ashore in a shallow place.

Norman and his girlfriend left their hometown to teach in Chicago. His hometown keeps flashing in his mind like a living rural landscape. There are fights, adventures, wild fun and fun, and every corner is filled with simple human feelings like dirt. At this point, a touching song rang out from the screen.

In the song, Norman misses his hometown infinitely. At the end of summer, there was unfortunate news. Paul died in a fight. The police found his body on the river bank. Normans can't help feeling sad.

Many years later, old Norman came to the Dachuan Department to fish again, and all his relatives had passed away. He is immersed in his own world, remembering fantastic times ... He feels that everything in reality has become blurred in his memory, and the rhythm of the river lapping in his ears is echoed, and the fat fish are jumping in front of him. All this gradually merged into one, and a river flowed through it.

At the end of the film, the old Norman came to the river again, and Norman's monologue rang out from the screen: "The endless river makes me dream ..."

This is a film adapted from Norman McClane's autobiographical novel by Columbia Company 1992. Norman, the author of the novel, has the same experience as the hero of the film. He is not a writer, but the simple local flavor in his works has attracted many readers, making his first and only novel a widely acclaimed classic literature. The film director Howard was also obsessed with fly bait fishing when he was a child. So he had a special liking for this script, and finally made it into a beautiful movie. At the 65th Academy Awards, the film was nominated for best original adaptation, best cinematography and best music, and finally won the academy award for best cinematography.

Focusing on the relationship between rivers and families, the film shows the lush and picturesque scenery in Montana and describes the life and customs of local people. The whole movie is full of idyllic romantic sentiment, without sharp drama conflict, pale and fragile characters and rich literary atmosphere, showing the yearning for a simple and quiet life in a paradise. The film also shows a family with some problems. They regard silence as a virtue and reserve as a weapon, so they lose many opportunities to express their feelings. However, as soon as they approached the river, the brotherhood was fully reflected, and they were perfectly integrated with nature. The film especially describes how they go fishing, but the description of fishing in the film is never boring: when the fish jump out of the water and shine silver in the sun, people feel that there is a sound outside the picture, which is endless.

The photography of this film is full of pastoral style. With the transition from summer to autumn, colors gradually change from bright and rich to soft, which is almost perfect in expressing natural scenery. Photographer Philip Leugers won the academy award for best cinematography. Paul's actor, Brad Pitt, was very impressive. With blond hair and charming laughter, he truly showed people an extraordinary young man with changeable temperament and won universal praise.

In particular, the film fully shows the color transition of the scenery in summer and autumn and the reflection of the river on the sunlight, which is beautiful to appreciate.

In addition, it is worth mentioning that the movie episode "Hometown Road, Take Me Home" is melodious and plain, with simple and natural lyrics, full of great nostalgia for my hometown and beautiful childhood. This song was sung by the late famous singer john denver. After the film was broadcast, this song spread all over the world, was loved by all countries, and became a classic in john denver.

With lyrics:

Paradise Valley will be a plain,

Yanling Mountain is high and Qingshui River is rolling.

Life passes like a breeze,

Older than trees, younger than mountains.

The road in my hometown takes me home, back to the place where I grew up.

Dear mother Dashan, take me home.

The road of my hometown is surrounded by my thoughts.

When the moonlit night is hazy with tears,

At dawn, I heard my hometown calling.

But I am far from Wan Li!

When I drove to the road, I remembered that I was at home yesterday.

Yesterday, yesterday,

The road in my hometown takes me home, back to the place where I grew up.

Dear mother Dashan, take me home.

I will always miss the road in my hometown.

Country road, take me home.

John Denver

West Virginia is almost heaven.

Shenandoah River, Blue Ridge Mountains

Life there is older than trees.

Younger than a mountain

Grow like a breeze

Country roads take me home.

Go where I belong.

West Virginia

Mountain mother

Country road, take me home.

All my memories are gathered around her.

Ms. Miner is a stranger to blue water.

Dark and dusty sky

The hazy taste of moonlight

Tears fell in my eyes.

Country roads take me home.

Go where I belong.

West Virginia

Mountain mother

Country road, take me home.
