A River Runs Through It by Norman Maclean

The guys try to add some variety by given Kyle the opportunity to pick the next adaptation - no questions asked. What did he pick? Norman Maclean's A River Runs Through It - the family friendly, Brad Pitt saturated, 90's movie! Perfect Kyle, right? But what did Michael and Jeff think about the "Great American Novel" and its adaptation?

Character Cheat Sheet!

• Craig Sheffer as Norman Maclean
• Brad Pitt as Paul Maclean
• Tom Skerrit as Rev. Maclean

Show Notes

• While correlation is not causation, it can't be a coincidence that the fly fishing industry grew 60% the year after the film came out.
• After the film was released in 1992, the book sold more than a million more copies.
