In my limited impression, I always feel that the world in the 1990s was rich in warm movies. I can't help but wonder if, at the end of the last century, both capitalist and socialist societies were heaven on earth.

This is a story about family and brotherhood. Brad Pitt was dazzling when he was young. Outside of the story, I would be immersed in this trance of the passage of time.

Paul and Norman grew up fishing in the Big Blackfoot River. It was a good time in life. The film uses a lot of shots to convey this feeling, and even the time the brothers are with Jessie's older brother is full of laughter and wit. Fishing has been used throughout the history of the Norman family.

Maybe Paul had a hunch. At the door of the bar, Paul caught up with Norman and proposed to go fishing with his father. Therefore, it is very rare for the father and son to come to the Big Blackfoot River together. In their opinion, it should be their most unforgettable fishing experience! The turn was so dramatic, like the one when Paul suggested going rafting as a kid, and it turned out that only Norman was involved.

"Almost all the people I loved when I was young but didn't know very well are dead now, including Jessie, but I still extend my hand to them." The narrative published in the church.

Old Paul stood alone in the Big Blackfoot River at risk, all the people he loved in his youth and their stories merged into one, a flowing river. He was very clear, and only came to the old place again and again to feel the warm current. I felt the same way at that moment.

    Revisited after being in Montana. I deeply understand why Paul is reluctant to leave here, just as I will not leave Yunnan.
