For as wondrous as A River Runs Through It is to behold, its true beauty lies within its simplistic and rich storytelling that chronicles the life of a Montana family in the first decades of the 20th century.

Norman and Paul Maclean, guided by their father yet choosing their own paths that take them away from home, find themselves yearning to return to the river that draws them closer together and sets them free from the burdens of the world where they find a solace and serenity that seems to transcend Heaven and earth.

With a religious undertone and wonderful commentary on the importance of family, A River Runs Through It is a timeless film for all generations to enjoy and embrace.
