The actual story encircled with the trio, the director depicted and portrayed each and every one’s character to well diagnosed way. The scenes portrayed were unassuming and enchanting.

The glimpses of the movie could be enacted and visualized in the way its theme music, which also had bagged the academy award for its glorious performance.

The theme music was compiled by the great musician Stanly myers in association with the guitarist John Williams. The theme of that music was melancholy and the life softened in Clairton. The main theme carries a sub-theme of ‘can’t take my off you’ is the melody liner of the times. It was portrayed and depicted to the level of winning the academy award it deserves in any way. This also had some controversy on Vietnamese. It also occluded the attraction of all eyes of those years like renters insurance for a college student at the time.

The film was more popular to the extent that the active nature of the film was being selected and preserved in one the libraries of the United States long before raw food cooking. The film had the extent of even three hours of run. Even though that was too long, it did not create any run down among the fans. The film had got the uniqueness of winning most awards of that time. It could be evident from each frame that it deserves all of those awards. Christopher Walken bagged the award of the best supporting actor.

Peter Zinner stood on the best editing award. It has another face of glory of winning the Golden globe award; the recipient of that award was also the director Michael Cimino.
