Legends of the Fall is a 1994 American epicdrama film directed by Edward Zwick and starring Brad Pitt, Anthony Hopkins, Aidan Quinn, Julia Ormond and Henry Thomas. Based on the 1979 novella of the same title by Jim Harrison, the film is about three brothers and their father living in the wilderness and plains of Montana in the early 20th century and how their lives are affected by nature, history, war and love. The film's time frame spans the decade before World War I through the Prohibition era, and into the 1930s, ending with a brief scene set in 1963. The film was nominated for three Academy Awards and won for Best Cinematography (John Toll). Both the film and book contain occasional Cornish language terms, the Ludlows being a Cornish emigrant family.
Plot
Sick of the betrayals the United States government has perpetrated on the Native Americans, Colonel William Ludlow retires to a remote part of Montana. Along with One Stab, a Cree friend, he builds a ranch and live with his family. Accompanying them are hired hand and outlaw Decker, Pet (Decker's Cree wife) and Isabel Two (his daughter). Ludlow has three sons: Alfred, the eldest, is responsible and cautious; Tristan, the Colonel's favourite son, is wild and well versed in American Indian traditions; Samuel, the youngest, is educated but naive and constantly watched over by his brothers.
Tell of the birth Tell how war appeared on earth Musicians with gongs Permeate the autobahns Foetus of disgusting breath And she split the egg Cast a spell and war was born Come follow me Out of the obscurity Pilgrims in songs Swamp the empty aerodrome Kalashnikovs but no houses Women at the double, march No food for the spouses They wait for the US drop Russians sit back and laugh While war casts her gory locks Over the deserted docks She casts her gory locks Over the deserted docks She cast a spell Split an egg and war was born And pillage hopes with gusto Even though they have no nerve And she does just look on And war does what she has to War does what she has to People get what they deserve
