30 year anniversary of 'The movie'

This year marks the 30 year anniversary of the movie based on Norman MacLean's novella 'A River Runs Through It'. This movie (released in October 1992) was responsible for an unprecedented surge of popularity of fly fishing in the USA. Fly shops had unheard record sales as result of the movie and rivers were suddenly crowded as never seen before.

Directed by Robert Redford, an impressive number of people from the fly fishing industry were flown in to help with all the fly fishing scenes in the movie, which is remarkable as just a fraction of the whole movie involves around a fly fishing setting. Within the fly fishing community this movie is simply known as 'The movie'.

As much as this movie having this huge impact in America, outside the USA I doubt it had much impact, if at all. Back in the winter of 1992, a few months after my first trip to Montana that summer, I watched the movie with a few friends in the cinema in Rotterdam. I remember sitting in an almost empty cinema, maybe there were 7 seats taken.

So, did this movie have much impact in your country (outside the USA)?
