One Family's Story

Rating: 10/10 (26 June 2005)

The movie has a relatively simple storyline, but it is well-done and entertaining, if a bit bittersweet.
It is the story of a man and his three sons and how their lives are all changed due to war, love, and each other. It traces their beginning of life all together on a ranch to the point where they each go their separate ways, yet family ties still bond them to each other.
While the movie does not raise any enduring questions, it is a moving picture of one family's life in the first quarter of the 20th century.
Anthony Hopkins, Aidan Quinn, and Brad Pitt give it their all in this film. Highly recommended for a Saturday night movie choice.
