Mending the Line (2023)

[unberechenbar]

Mending the Line is a story about finding something to make living worthwhile. John Colter, a wounded veteran, returns to the States still carrying the demons of war, hauntingly disturbed by the everyday expectations of friendships and love interests. In Livingston, Montana, he meets Ike, a surly, headstrong fly-fisherman more than twice his age, and Lucy, a talented photographer turned librarian who reads aloud to veterans, both damaged in their own way. While getting treatment for his wounds, both physical and psychological, Colter wants only to re-enlist, to have something to die for. But the real challenge is finding something to live for.

I saw the trailer for this before Master Garden, along with a trailer for another movie with Brian Cox called Prisoner's Daughter.

3.5/5 for me. The movie had a decent opening and was really strong in the middle but petered out towards the end. Wes Studi was really good. There wasn't actually much fishing shown and only a little mention of technique. There were a couple of great jokes in this, including one involving Brian Cox's character's fishing rod named Super Max.
