Set in early 20th-century Montana, "Legends of the Fall" follows the Ludlow family: Col. William Ludlow (Anthony Hopkins) and his sons Alfred, Tristan (Brad Pitt), and Samuel, who live on a remote ranch. Their close bond is challenged by the harsh realities of World War I and complicated by love, leading to a poignant tale of loyalty, loss, and passion over several decades.
Trivia:
1. Brad Pitt broke his nose during filming but chose not to fix it immediately because he felt it added character to his role as Tristan.

3. Composer James Horner's haunting score for the film includes the use of traditional Native American instruments, enhancing the movie's epic and historical atmosphere.
