After the Fall from Innocence the Legend begins.

Set in the Rocky Mountains of Montana in the early 1900s, this is a tale of love, betrayal, and brotherhood. After being discharged, Colonel Ludlow decides to raise his three sons in the wilds of Montana, where they can grow up away from the government and society he has learned to despise. The three brothers mature and seem to have an unbreakable bond, until Susanna enters their lives. When Samuel, the youngest of the three, returns from college he brings with him his beautiful fiance, Susanna. The eldest son, Alfred, soon finds himself in love with his brother's fiance, and things get worse when he discovers a growing passion between Susanna and Tristan. Colonel Ludlow's favorite son, Tristan is willful and as wild as the mountains. As the brothers set out to fight a war in Europe, suspicion and jealousy threatens to tear apart their once indestructible bond. (Source: IMDB)

Megan's Movie Review:

This movie was really interesting to me. It was basically just a story. It had no morals to it, well that's what I thought. It was just a story about this family and all these trials that they go through. It all started with the youngest brother dying (which was pretty gruesome) and it was so sad. I didn't cry in this movie, but it was just a sad movie. This poor man named Tristan went through so much and lost so many loved ones. I thought it was also sad how he died in the end, even though I know it was supposed to be this great manly death because he didn't run away from the bear.. Hmm.. Whatever. Brad Pitt was great in this movie. He can pull off the long hair rather well. Fabulous actor too.
