[세계의 명화] Far and away<br />” src=”<figcaption>[세계의 명화] Far and away</figcaption></figure></div><p>Today (January 4th) EBS1 will air director Ron Howard’s ‘Far And Away’.</p><p>It is a 1992 American film directed by Ron Howard, starring Tom Cruise, Nicole Kidman, Thomas Gibson, Robert Prosky, and Barbara Babcock. Running time 140 minutes, suitable for ages 15 and older.</p><p>◆ Summary:</p><p>Ireland under British rule in the 19th century. Peasants’ dissatisfaction with landlords who collected excessive rents was growing. Joseph Donnelly (Tom Cruise), the son of a peasant family, decides to take revenge, believing that his father died because of the vicious landowner Daniel Christie. But the gun that poor Joseph carried was old and useless. Once again, Joseph is stabbed by a pitchfork wielded by the landowner’s daughter, Shannon Christie (Nicole Kidman). Meanwhile, Shannon is tired of the old-fashioned and archaic atmosphere of Irish society, especially the landowning class to which she belongs. Instead of wearing a skirt and being noble, I want to be free from the customs that bind me. Shannon decides to move to the United States after seeing a flyer saying that if she goes to Oklahoma, land will be given away for free. However, since women were prohibited from sailing alone at the time, Shannon suggests to Joseph that they go together. Joseph and Shannon, who seemed like bitter enemies, go to the United States together and have no choice but to start living together. Joseph sets out to make money as a boxer, and Shannon works as a day laborer pulling down chicken feathers. Things don’t go as planned, and Joseph loses the match, and Shannon ends up suffering a gunshot wound. In the end, the two end up breaking up. How much time has passed? Joseph and Shannon reunite in Oklahoma. There, the two acquire their own land, which they had longed for, and their love comes to fruition.</p><p>◆ Topic:</p><p>It contains the great adventures of those who set out to find land in America in the 19th century. For those who have lived by cultivating the land for generations, land is like the source of life. When such land is lost, humans are in a state as if they have lost everything. Those who bear the scars of such loss try to conquer the land by moving to the United States, the land of freedom and opportunity. Of course, on that journey, there are people who will cultivate the land and continue the land together, as well as loved ones. It depicts the process by which people from different class environments, Joseph and Shannon, confirm their affection for the land and their love for each other during their journey to find their own reasons for living.</p><p>◆ Impression points:</p><p>During the time of western expansion, was the land a source of life and proof of one’s existence for humans? is a story about the grand dream of a young man and woman who want to leave behind the class frustration of 19th century Ireland and go to the United States in search of land. That’s why it was important to capture Mother Nature, especially wide fields and vast plains, in the film. In particular, the race scene in the second half, in which numerous people ride horses across the wide expanse of Oklahoma, is a highlight. Joseph and Shannon set off on horseback to acquire land, or more accurately, the land they would share in the future. In addition, although there were many social restrictions at the time due to being a woman, Shannon is a female character who does not give up on what she wants and achieves it until the end. Even in the face of rough men, he is not intimidated and shows his will to carry out his opinions. Meanwhile, it is quite fun to watch the process by which Joseph and Shannon confirm their feelings for each other. Scenes where they growl at each other and rush to avoid losing make me laugh out loud.</p><p>◆ Director: Ron Howard</p><p>Ron Howard was born on March 1, 1954 and is from Oklahoma, USA.
