I was just thinking about the Grumpy Old Men flicks.
Then there is A River Runs Through It.

Thoughts on films with a fishing theme?

i've always liked elvis in follow
that dream "catching" the big tarpon
on that cane pole and diaper pin

jeremiah johnson- "paints-his-shirt says
you fish poorly. . "

man in the wilderness- zach bass "fishing"
by thrashing a creek with a stick and
pulling out the big trout

Another old Tracy flick. Kipling to boot!

Being native burghers of this desert city,
Should in their own confines with forked heads
Have their round haunches gored."

Hardly the sport of fly fishing a cold mountain stream.

The cinematography is very well done for ARRTI, so I understand your sentiment.

Norman Maclean is a superb author and story teller, and his books are well worth your time IMO. You will find yourself caring. wink

Petacoat Junction, when they stoped the Cannon Ball on the bridge and all the passengers and the conductor dropped lines over the side for What looked to be Brook Trout.
Actually everyone else had already taken the movies I would have listed so I wanted some thing different.
