Spring Film Series “The Longest Ride” (2015)
“The Longest Ride” (2015), directed by George Tillman Jr. and based on Nicholas Sparks’ novel, intertwines two love stories across generations. The film follows Luke Collins (Scott Eastwood), a bull-riding champion recovering from a career-threatening injury, and Sophia Danko (Britt Robertson), an art student about to move to New York for an internship. After rescuing an elderly man, Ira Levinson (Alan Alda), from a car accident, they discover a box of love letters chronicling his decades-long romance with his late wife, Ruth (Oona Chaplin). As Sophia reads the letters to Ira, the parallels between their budding relationship and Ira and Ruth’s enduring love story emerge, teaching them about sacrifice, commitment, and the choices that define a lifetime.
