Summary: Seven Years in Tibet / Legends of the Fall (Double Feature)
Review: I found "Seven Years in Tibet" to be one of Brad Pitt's best films to date. The moving story of how one mans life was changed from his experience in Tibet and with the Dali Lama. What makes it even better is that it is about Heinrich Harrer's memoir's. A selfish and arrogant man transformed by the peaceful Tibetan way, this story is shown from his perspective. An outsider seeing the land for the first time and telling it how he see's it, however long it is.

"Legends of the Fall" is a story about three brother raised in the wild Montana ranges by they're father. The brothers, different in every way, fall in love with the same woman over time. I found this story a bit too melodramatic at times but genuinely sad and wonderful at others. Pitt, cast as the middle brother, is a wild animal that the film is focused on. It's full of blood, lust and tragedy. Just the film to watch on a rainy day.

I suggest with this double feature to watch one, then stop for a break then watch the other. This is only for a Brad Pitt fan, otherwise it would be with too much to absorb with his dark sides in both the movies. However they are both as good as each other.
