| Legends Of The Fall Description : |
| Director Edward Zwick's epic
romance, set against the backdrop of WWI and the wide sky
and rugged terrain of Montana, stars Anthony Hopkins as
William Ludlow, an idealistic retired colonel who
disapproves of the war and the army's indecent treatment of
Native Americans. Abandoned by his blue-blooded wife, Ludlow
raises his three sons in the remote foothills of Montana
with the help of Native American friends. Before the war,
Samuel (Henry Thomas) brings home his fiancée from the East
Coast, Susannah (Julia Ormond), a stunning beauty who can
ride, rope, and hunt like the Ludlow boys. When the war
breaks out, Samuel, the youngest and most idealistic son,
enlists in the army. Brothers Alfred (Aidan Quinn) and
Tristan (Brad Pitt) follow suit, more as protectors than as
cohorts. Despite their best efforts, however, Samuel dies in
battle. Upon returning home, Tristan becomes involved with
Susannah, who is devastated by her loss but profoundly
attracted to the brooding brother. However, tormented by his
inability to save his little brother's life, Tristan
abandons her and sets out on a long journey of
self-discovery. During his absence, Alfred reveals his own
passion for Susannah. Although she does not reciprocate his
feelings, Susannah--who has despaired of ever seeing Tristan
again--agrees to become his wife. Ultimately, Tristan does
return, setting off a dangerous conflict between the
brothers.
Filmed in Canada and Jamaica. The film is based on the
novel by Jim Harrison. Although Brad Pitt was already
well-known for THELMA & LOUISE, A RIVER RUNS THROUGH IT,
and KALIFORNIA, his roles in INTERVIEW WITH A VAMPIRE and
LEGENDS OF THE FALL during 1994 made him into a full-fledged
star and sex symbol. Pitt and Anthony Hopkins also appear
together in MEET JOE BLACK.
Three sons of a retired U.S. cavalry colonel, raised in
the remote foothills of the Rockies, are turned against each
other when a beautiful woman enters their lives, while
modernization and World War I loom in the background.

Pitt..."
"...Pitt is perfectly casts in a traditional
heartthrob way....Zwick orchestrates everything with welcome
gusto..."
"...The movie is a showcase for acting, and in
addition to Ormond and Hopkins, it also shows how strong
Aidan Quinn and Brad Pitt are..."
