George Croonenberghs, right, illustrates a point to actor Brad Pitt during
the filming of the 1992 movie "A River Runs Through It." Croonenberghs, who
died Thursday, tied flies for Norman and Paul Maclean. Pitt played Paul
Maclean in the film.

Great write-up on George! Sounds like a great person, I liked the part where
he tied an extra set of flies for use.
I saw the movie a few times, decided to purchase it when it was on sale at
a local shop. I also read Norman Maclean's short story that was based for
the movie. Redford did an outstanding job following the storyline.
