The music and the movie have moved me to a place in my heart i thought was long gone. I can barely catch my breath listening to Deep Thoughts. My heart hurts, you see I lived this movie. I was Francesca. I lost my Robert. If i were to have listened to my friend I would have ran to my Robert.
This movie broke my heart better than she ever did. Still i love her even though 8 years have passed and i havn't met her since that day..Society forces me to move on, but who can make them understand that "True Love" never moves on, it just takes a little corner in your heart amidst all that chaos and stays there forever.
I’ve wanted to watch this movie for years and never got around to it. My wife went to work today, as I scrolled through I saw it and pushed play. As I got to the end, I wasn’t prepared for the flood of emotions this movie extracted from me! We wake up one day and a lifetime is nearly finished. It moves so fast, on its own terms and you are left with a handful of decisions defined as a life. My indulgences, mistakes, bad decisions, I’ve never let see the light of day...until today! Thanks for holding my hand Francesca and telling me it’s ok to fall...to be human.
“When I think about why I photograph, the only reason that comes to mind is that I spent my life trying to get here. I have the impression that everything I did until today was to reach you. ” (Bridges of Madison County)
The depth into the human heart this music goes is indescribable. When you find a love like this that completely consumes you from within, you're never the same again.
I meet him when i had to choose to live or not ,he came and save me ,he went his way but my love for him didnt ,i lived fighting for life and only memory of him in me,when i leave i hope to find him up there to lay my head on his shoulder and rest in peace
Yes, I too visited (in 1996) the bridges (including Roseman Bridge)...& then while walking around the main square in Winterset...tears came to my eyes.
So you are a terribly lucky person. Damn !!! You really don't know how much I would like to go to that place !! After watching the movie, long ago, I dream on this magnificent bridge. You're soooo lucky. !!!!
I once saw this wonderful film at a low point many years ago, during a long term relationship break up, and I distinctly remembered this score over the movie. I decided I was going to get it, but it slipped my mind and I forgot about it sadly. Then one day decades later, youtube suggested this song in a compilation while I was working, and after a few tracks, that piano opened up and I literally welled up. That's the power of music. I don't know if it's a trick of the mind, but music can almost teleport me to good and bad times.
Derian, it's not called the POWER of MUSIC for no reason... Music was even used as a motivater when men went into battle such is it's power... National anthems played at sporting events does the same job.. Then we have music that associates us with lost love.... This can be so difficult to deal with... The Eastwood piece I too associate with lost love and even though this was 20 plus years ago the film and the music stirs the memory.... as if it needed stirring..... The memory is constantly there, the music just makes certain I can never forget...
Derian Jones some music can take you anywhere you want to go,especially this piece and of course doe eyes,I’ve watched the film more times than I care to remember and it just tares me up every time.
I’m so sorry to hear this your message has touched me I completely understand where your coming from. 🥹 Things will get easier in time my man, god bless you and keep the faith beautiful things will come your way. 🙏❤️🙏
@@tango22ah Thats no problem at all I mean it from the heart. Stay strong and keep pushing your wife would love nothing more then for you to try and find happiness. Keep the faith you will get there 🙏❤️🙏
So very glad I did not see this movie in the theater. They would have needed a mop and pail to get me off the floor. The ending blindsided me. Seeing the book (Four Days) was the trigger. I needed a pillow to muffle the crying. I was not crying, I was bellowing. The pain in my heart and stomach was off the scale. I identified with Robert Kincade and took it to far. What a love story.
Auch ich habe meine Franceska (Melly) gefunden und verloren. Solch eine Erfahrung veränderte mein ganzes Leben. Die Gewissheit eine Frau bedingungslos zu lieben gepaart mit der Gewissheit sie nicht haben zu können hat mir das Herz gebrochen. Ich wünsche mir einerseits dass sie mich aus ihrem Leben verbannt in der Hoffnung dass der Schmerz nachlässt aber das wird sie nicht tun. Dieser Geniale Film spiegelt in dieser Beziehung mein Leben wieder. Ich werde sie niemals vergessen.
Ce film, c'est une pépite, un trésor, la musique, l'histoire, le jeu des acteurs, il me bouleverse toujours autant Il y a 4 ans j'ai retrouvé mon amour de jeunesse, un soir de septembre nous avons fermé la porte pensant que nous allions nous retrouver la semaine qui suivait et puis tout a été bouleversé... Nous nous sommes cherchés pendant un peu plus de 3 décennies sans nous trouver, sans jamais nous oublier, puis fin octobre 2019 il est revenu sonner à ma porte, ce fut le plus beau jour de notre vie, des instants précieux chargés d'amour et de tendresse, chaque jour passé avec lui est un moment de pur bonheur et chaque jour nous remercions notre bonne étoile de nous avoir offert une seconde chance
Probably watched this masterpiece with my mother a dozen times...we'd sit through the ending credits,look at each other,with moist eyes...and thank the powers that be,for movie magic...thank you Clint.
" Szív hídjai" című film főszereplői Meryl Srteep, és Cliont Eastwood . Láttam ezt a csodás filmet. Felejthetetlen élményt nyújtott. Hálásan köszönöm ❤️❤️
I’m usually not one for love stories, but this movie is a cinematic masterpiece, it stands alone and is timeless and classic in every since of the word, probably in the top 10 greatest cinematic achievements.
Los puentes de Madison es una obra maestra , no me canso de verla , está hecha con el corazón , una banda sonora espectacular , no tengo palabras para definir esta obra maestra .
I saw this movie in 1995 .I could not believe it was like my story was being told I was so shocked. I am 70 years old now and that movie My Breath Away
This song feels like love...all the ups and downs, disappointments and joy. It is the hardest thing to find and so easy to give up. It to me is what makes life worth living. To love someone and beloved that much and to know that letting go... is love.
I cannot let go of this movie. Bought it. It's like the love of my life still going strong these last 21 yrs. Praying for at least that many more yrs again 💜💜
This movie is wonderful, so beautiful and sensitive, it taught me that a love has to be lived with all the strength of the heart! I cried, I laughed, I loved it!
I was 15 years old,when read a book and I cried,and cried..Now I'm 37 years old...and don't know what kind of this love..I saw many times this film...and it's heartbreaking..
There is a pleasure in the pathless woods, There is a rapture on the lonely shore, There is society where none intrudes, By the deep Sea, and music in its roar: I love not Man the less, but Nature more, From these our interviews, in which I steal From all I may be, or have been before, To mingle with the Universe, and feel What I can ne'er express, yet cannot all conceal
Of all the movies of Merry Streep and Clint Eastwood I have seen, the Bridges of Medison County is the best,memorable and evergreen. It is masterpiece and part of my collection.
The Bridges of Madison County. I have read the book on numerous occasions, I found it sad and very moving, a chance meeting and encounter shared for their lifetime, memories of the long hot days never to be forgotten. Have you read the sequel to it? They find the mothers diary! I prefer reading, that way you see your interpretation of the characters in your mind. Example.. Jurassic Park, I read the book first then went to see the film... I thought I was in the wrong cinema, the same with The Lord of the Rings.
jc's place I think reading the book makes your mind take over the characters better. Much better than having it in front of you where it is already done for you; you don't have time to dwell on what is actually happening. With a book you can lay it down and think about what is happening, then pick it up again and continue.I have seen the film but wasn't struck on the actors.
Assisti pela primeira vez em 1997 e nunca deixei de me emocionar com este filme. Intenso, profundo, sensível. Brilhante Klint e Meryl. Setembro de 2022 e ainda me acelera o coração! ❤️
What a great artist Lennie Niehaus is. Often overlooked and underrated. That's probably why I am not surprised that I am the first to comment on this video. Noehaus is the master of subtlety. He is able to create the deepest emotiond only with a piano and some string arrangement. A master of his craft.
Lennie Niehaus does do some lovely simple but very emotionally hitting piano work. Great moving and upsetting work here done with a small number of notes.
I love this movie... it says so much about the human heart and how love when we are lucky enough to recognize it, can give us the strength to stand when we want to run. Sometimes loving is known when to stay, when to go and when to let go. This song makes me hopeful ... much love to all.
Well said. It does say much about the human heart and how love when we are lucky enough to recognize it can give us the strength to stand when we want to run. I will not run this time from love. I will run toward it to see what the ending will bring. I love this man and now that he is single and ready to love again, I will be there for him. So glad I waited and he's willing to give it a try.
Simplemente, una obra de arte, Clint Eastwood cambia su registro de tipo duro y nos demuestra el pedazo de actor que es, con un papel sublime y una dirección inmejorable. Su banda sonora..... impresionante, capta la esencia de la historia y los sentimientos de sus protagonistas.
I absolutely loved the feel of the 60’s and a simpler time etc, loved the music and always will. It brings to mind the pain of growing up when I thought I knew what love was. But one day I realized this movie is a fairy tale. This isn’t a story of love, it’s a story of placing our desire for change on a nearby human who needs the same from us. This intense immature take on love is not healthy, and we need to take it with a grain of salt. Real love is commitment, even when the fun of passion and infatuation has faded. And the best part of the lesson from the characters was that Francesca finally realized this (Robert didn’t). She realized that what they had would disappear if they ran away together……because it wasn’t real. It was a fantasy. Real love is deeper than what those 2 had. But I still love the fantasy.
You are partly correct. The letting go is harder on Robert because he doesn't have family obligations. Francesca is realistic about the consequences on her children and husband - especially in a small rural town in Iowa - had she given in to her desires. Francesca loves her children. She also loves her husband, but she is not in love with him. She married him because it was a way to escape the ravages of WW II and a chance to start over in America. She chose to stay because of her commitment and devotion to her family, but this self-sacrifice - their happiness for hers - does not at all mean that the love at first sight between Robert and Francesca is a fantasy. In another time and place, the "fantasy" might have lasted a lifetime. After all, isn't that how it starts for most of us, whether love at first sight or a slow burn? Given time, love grows between two people meant for each other. So Francesca gave up a real chance to have the love of her life for familial love and obligations. She knew the relationship would not be able to sustain the guilt she would bear as a mother and wife had she left ... she could not choose her happiness over theirs. But for the rest of her life, she suffered in silence and lived a lonely life deprived of the love she carried in her heart for Robert until her last breath. That is, as Robert said "a certainty that comes but once in a lifetime". And that is definitely no fantasy. At least not for these two.
Love comes in many forms. If you stay close, you lose sight of it. Being apart allows us to be compassionate to those around us. I want to wrap my heart around two people who have promised not farewell, but eternity.
Una delle colonne sonore più belle del cinema. Magistralmente legata alla storia, ai personaggi, ai paesaggi...non un sottofondo ma un componente essenziale del film. Indimenticabile. ❤
Los actores son maravillosos, la historia también y la música me hace llorar , me llega al alma...Sigo viendo esta película , a pesar de los años...Gracias por subir esto!!!
This music is heart rendering. You can feel all the passion, the need and the understanding when no is the only answer. To love like this is to love beyond words and music like this is the only way to explain it...if you dare to try. Bravo Mr. Lennie Niehaus!
...Un meraviglioso Amore tenero e romantico...un incontro fortuito...l'incontro di due sguardi...di due anime sensibili....che hanno sentito nel loro Cuore...quella magia di essere eterni innamorati...interpretazione magistrale di due grandi attori che hanno amplificato la bellezza e la tenerezza di questo film ...che dire?...tutto da vedere e rivedere mille volte...emozionante e strappa lacrime...Sempre e Per Sempre...dedicato ai Cuori impavidi ...
This is just incredible!! I mean if the movie had not been made, those bridges, that house...all of it would have been just another place....but the movie made is so damn SPECIAL...forever!! Everyone know it was "just a movie"...yet...so many hearts around the world wish they could have met their Francesca/Robert... ⚘
Un de mes film préféré et cette musique si mélodieuse!!!C'est du miel,une fleur et une abeille et quand on mélange le tout....c'est l'existentielle de la vie!!!!L'amour et les beautés de la nature.
There are emotions and feelings that are meant to stay forever. It seems unbelievable but it's true...and this feelings will become the deepest secret in your heart.
2021 and I can still feel their love 💕 just from the music 🎶 and.. Blessed to see such a beautiful love story and this will move on to the ❤️💕 We have in each other! 💋💋
My Heart hurts is set free to speak,in words i cannot share,when i listen to The Bridges!! My dear Wife left for Heaven,leaveing me berift of grief,thinking i could have loved her more,could have done so much more.The loss never subsides,but now has inspires me to love another beautiful woman in my life. Your heart now lives in me. and i considor myself gifted.
The music and the movie have moved me to a place in my heart i thought was long gone. I can barely catch my breath listening to Deep Thoughts. My heart hurts, you see I lived this movie. I was Francesca. I lost my Robert. If i were to have listened to my friend I would have ran to my Robert.
♥️
My god I feel the same way my cat is dying now from old age so I'm listening to this and crying so bad
Like Robert said some of us just aren't meant to have family's or ever no true love.
So sorry… ❤️
I lost my Robert too 😢
This movie broke my heart better than she ever did. Still i love her even though 8 years have passed and i havn't met her since that day..Society forces me to move on, but who can make them understand that "True Love" never moves on, it just takes a little corner in your heart amidst all that chaos and stays there forever.
Judaic-Charlie Stated beautifully 😢❣️
I’ve wanted to watch this movie for years and never got around to it. My wife went to work today, as I scrolled through I saw it and pushed play.
As I got to the end, I wasn’t prepared for the flood of emotions this movie extracted from me!
We wake up one day and a lifetime is nearly finished. It moves so fast, on its own terms and you are left with a handful of decisions defined as a life.
My indulgences, mistakes, bad decisions, I’ve never let see the light of day...until today!
Thanks for holding my hand Francesca and telling me it’s ok to fall...to be human.
How lovely❤

This was the first movie , The love of my life and I saw . RIP KEVIN SCOT WILLIAMS ♥️ I will love you forever
The dialogs are indeed a masterpiece in themselves
"I've never said this before, and I will never say it again". "This type of certainty comes but once in a lifetime".
The depth into the human heart this music goes is indescribable. When you find a love like this that completely consumes you from within, you're never the same again.
I meet him when i had to choose to live or not ,he came and save me ,he went his way but my love for him didnt ,i lived fighting for life and only memory of him in me,when i leave i hope to find him up there to lay my head on his shoulder and rest in peace
I have had the priviledge of visiting the bridges in Winterset, Iowa. One of the most memorable moments of my life. Unforgettable.

So you are a terribly lucky person. Damn !!! You really don't know how much I would like to go to that place !! After watching the movie, long ago, I dream on this magnificent bridge.

Yes, I agree with you.. This movie is so deep and it shows us how a love has to be lived...
I was 15 years old,when read a book and I cried,and cried..Now I'm 37 years old...and don't know what kind of this love..I saw many times this film...and it's heartbreaking..
I wonder if you read the follow up book? If not it is a must..... Its ending is even more heartbreaking.....
There is a pleasure in the pathless woods,
There is a rapture on the lonely shore,
There is society where none intrudes,
By the deep Sea, and music in its roar:
I love not Man the less, but Nature more,
From these our interviews, in which I steal
From all I may be, or have been before,
To mingle with the Universe, and feel
What I can ne'er express, yet cannot all conceal
You are enlightened Keep shining
This is beautiful

A wonderful and very romantic story and movie with awesome performers .I cried and was sad when I watched the end .

I absolutely loved the feel of the 60’s and a simpler time etc, loved the music and always will. It brings to mind the pain of growing up when I thought I knew what love was. But one day I realized this movie is a fairy tale. This isn’t a story of love, it’s a story of placing our desire for change on a nearby human who needs the same from us. This intense immature take on love is not healthy, and we need to take it with a grain of salt. Real love is commitment, even when the fun of passion and infatuation has faded. And the best part of the lesson from the characters was that Francesca finally realized this (Robert didn’t). She realized that what they had would disappear if they ran away together……because it wasn’t real. It was a fantasy. Real love is deeper than what those 2 had. But I still love the fantasy.
Very well said 👏.
You are wise❤
You are partly correct. The letting go is harder on Robert because he doesn't have family obligations.
Francesca is realistic about the consequences on her children and husband - especially in a small rural town in Iowa - had she given in to her desires.
Francesca loves her children. She also loves her husband, but she is not in love with him. She married him because it was a way to escape the ravages of WW II and a chance to start over in America.
She chose to stay because of her commitment and devotion to her family, but this self-sacrifice - their happiness for hers - does not at all mean that the love at first sight between Robert and Francesca is a fantasy.
In another time and place, the "fantasy" might have lasted a lifetime. After all, isn't that how it starts for most of us, whether love at first sight or a slow burn? Given time, love grows between two people meant for each other. So Francesca gave up a real chance to have the love of her life for familial love and obligations. She knew the relationship would not be able to sustain the guilt she would bear as a mother and wife had she left ... she could not choose her happiness over theirs.
But for the rest of her life, she suffered in silence and lived a lonely life deprived of the love she carried in her heart for Robert until her last breath. That is, as Robert said "a certainty that comes but once in a lifetime". And that is definitely no fantasy. At least not for these two.
Love comes in many forms. If you stay close, you lose sight of it. Being apart allows us to be compassionate to those around us. I want to wrap my heart around two people who have promised not farewell, but eternity.

The music suits the story perfectly…just hearing it brings certain scenes to mind…an unforgettable movie/ story
...Un meraviglioso Amore tenero e romantico...un incontro fortuito...l'incontro di due sguardi...di due anime sensibili....che hanno sentito nel loro Cuore...quella magia di essere eterni innamorati...interpretazione magistrale di due grandi attori che hanno amplificato la bellezza e la tenerezza di questo film ...che dire?...tutto da vedere e rivedere mille volte...emozionante e strappa lacrime...Sempre e Per Sempre...dedicato ai Cuori impavidi ...
one of the most beautiful movies
