Head on over to my DVD review of “A River Runs Through It” (Deluxe Edition) at eyecravedvd.com or read on for the movie review.
“A river runs through it” is the Academy Award winning screen adaptation (1992, Best Cinematography) of Norman Maclean’s memoir directed by Robert Redford. Starring Brad Pitt, Craig Sheffer, and Tom Skerritt in an American family drama set in the 1930s in a beautifully shot rural Montana. The father, a Presbyterian minister, played by Tom Skerritt, raises two sons of opposite nature; the one reserved the other rebellious. The former, Norman Maclean, is played by Craig Sheffer and the latter, Paul, by Brad Pitt. The story covers the life and history of the family and as such the movie is heavily focused on dialogue intertwined with the breathtakingly beautiful Montana landscape.
