The Longest Ride

Already somehow it entered into a rut that every year fans of the writer Nicholas Sparks have the pleasure of watching a new adaptation of one of his novels. In 2015, the year it was the turn to be shot on film the book "The Long Road". This time the director's chair was invited to take George Tillman Jr., known for the film "Notorious," "Men of Honor" and "Faster." Adaptation of the novel engaged Craig Bolotin, frankly not the most famous writer in his record releases unless thriller "Black rain" of 1989 with Michael Douglas. The main roles were called young actors Scott Eastwood (yes, the son of the), Britt Robertson, Jack Huston and Oona Chaplin (yes, the very granddaughter), and the experience and authority represented by him Alan Alda. And in this format, and granted us the film "The Long Road".



Nicholas Sparks does not change himself, he comes up with a story that is quite logical and could happen in real life, but it twists and turns, of course, lead to the fact that the feelings and emotions of his characters were equal to the incorruptible history of the William Shakespeare. This time, the young man Luke Collins (Eastwood, who Scott), professionally engaged in rodeo, meets a beautiful girl Sophia (Robertson). A few lovely meeting and they obviously twisted relationship. While returning from one such visits they notice the accident and rescue the elderly man. At the hospital, where his visit come and Luke and Sophia, he called Ira Levinson (young played by Houston, aged - Alda) and through letters and stories he tells them the story of his hot and only the love of a girl named Ruth (Chaplin, that Una). He'll tell you how to achieve it, she reciprocated, he went to war, he returned as a cripple, she supported him and together they overcome the critical moments of their lives.

Touching story. And what more you want from the Nicholas Sparks? He's different somehow, and can not, so these pictures are best seen not in isolation, but pressed tightly to his loved one to heart feel all the love you feel for him. If it is due to some circumstances, it is impossible, or at least think about it. The film is fed into easy to read formation, that is, there is no need to scour some deep contexts of drama, it vividly demonstrates. In the films based on the works of Nicholas Sparks' main active element is just the deeper feelings, and emerging born, lost and returned by. Actors in this case you just have to show them, in this case in no case not to be false, because in that movie the audience will feel the insincerity subcutaneously. "The Long Road" clearly done without misfires and actor playing the young artists is quite difficult to find flaws, and if they are, then it may well be attributed to the small of their experience, but to spoil the picture no one dared.

Scott Eastwood is, of course, far away to his father and his shadow for a long time will relentlessly follow him. But the guy can say thanks for what he tried and it showed. He wanted to come as close as possible to the image of the sad knight, and may not be thorough, yet he did it. Just more inexperienced Britt Robertson will take the viewer his naive and natural beauty. The latest trend of many youth films is that everything is constantly sleeping with anyone, in the "long road" situation is quite different, and for their commitment to the most simple laws of morality, too, is to say thank you. Jack Huston and Oona Chaplin once played a very harmonious couple. None of them had pulled the blanket over himself, and their main task was to show what difficulties can experience love, but it is eternal, so it becomes a joy when you see that people can so to love and support each other. And as without the deserved Alan Alda. There is no doubt that the young actors he had become the very expression of acting and there are suspicions that he became them, or, at least, has shown that in old age is possible only with his eyes to express the depth of feeling.

Thin, delicate, touching story about the experiences, obstacles drama that overcomes the power of love, hand written by Nicholas Sparks. And his name is now sounds like a brand, often eclipsing even those who are directly involved in the film adaptation of his novels. "The Long Road" is dedicated to all those who believe in the present and a strong sense of who said it was a chimera?
