Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })A 1992 film adapted from Norman Maclean's semi-autobiographical story of the same name, directed by Robert Redford and starring Brad Pitt, Craig Sheffer, and Tom Skerritt.Set between World War I and The Great Depression, it follows the lives of Norman (Sheffer) and Paul (Pitt) Maclean, two brothers from Missoula, Montana who are as different as can be... except for a mutual love of fly fishing, a passion instilled in them at an early age by their father John (Skerritt), a stern but loving Presbyterian minister. The film depicts the brothers' changing relationship as they transition from childhood into adolescence and finally adulthood, while exploring themes of Transcendentalism along the way.The film was well received by critics, with particular praise given to Redford's direction and Pitt's star-making performance as Paul. It won an Academy Award for Best Cinematography, and also received nominations for Best Original Score and Best Adapted Screenplay.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Joseph Gordon-Levitt, in feature film debut, appears as young Norman. | |

Bittersweet Ending | |
| A River Runs Through It / int_40cc0c7e | comment |
Bittersweet Ending: The story ends up somewhere in between this and a Downer Ending. Paul is murdered offscreen over his gambling debts, which leaves their parents devastated and Norman says that they barely spoke of it afterwards. Norman, on the other hand, marries Jessie and has a family, living a full life to an old age... except that he also outlives his wife and most if not all of his friends, so his story kind of turns out sad as well. The movie finally ends with him as an old man, fishing alone in a river, while the narration monologues about the serenity of fly fishing and the timelessness of water. | |
