Pure Country (1992)
If you like George Strait, You'll love this film.
"A Walk in the Clouds" with Keanu Reeves was my all time favorite movie until I saw "Pure Country" a few months ago. Any one who likes to listen to George Strait music will love this movie. He does so few publicity interviews and even fewer music videos, so this is a great way to get to see George Strait talk, move and interact apart from his on stage singing act.
The plot is simple, a star crossed lovers romance with lots of professional concert singing thrown in. George Strait's riding and roping skills are up on the screen to see, too. The cowboy in him is displayed as he does his own stunt work in those scenes.
I wonder if the dog in the movie is his own dog, Buster, that is in some of the commercials he's done.
A Walk in the Clouds (1995)
Wonderful Movie
Until recently, this was my most favorite movie of all time. I saw it for the first time in the theatre when it came out in the 90's. I bought it as soon as it came out on video and have kept and watched it many times since then. Keanu Reeves is perfect for the role of Paul Sutton. My favorite line is when Victoria says to him, "Paul Sutton, you are the most honorable man I have ever known."
Great movie. I don't know why its not more popular. It has the best story line of any of his films. He's a very good actor in all of his movies, but "A Walk in The Clouds" is by far my favorite. "Speed" would be my second choice and then "Matrix".
Another line from 'Clouds' is "Courage under fire", (this is what he received his Army medal for). That accurately describes his roles in the films he's done that I like so much.
