This is probably the film i've seen more times. It's one of the few that doesn't stop to move me every time I see it. The story is absolutely haunting, beautiful, epic...Every line in the movie is memorable. The cast is one of the best ever put together on a film. Gordon Tootoosis (One Stab, the story narrator), Anthony Hopkins (Coronel Ludlow), Aidan Quinn (Alfred), Brad Pitt (Tristan), Julia Ormond (Susannah), Henry Thomas (Samuel)...They all stand out for the depth in their performance. And James Horner's (Braveheart) music is, as always, profound and moving. At the end you are amazed by how life can be meaningful and also tormented to find meaning in your own existence. "I followed all of the rules, man's and God's. And you, you followed none of them. And they all loved you more. Samuel, Father, and my... even my own wife."
