This is a great movie.
A an over educated city guy is sent alone to sub arctic Alaska or Canada to study wolves.

That does not sound like a plot, but it is, because he must change or die.

Can be watched as adventure, or it can be watched as comedy.

I watched this on tv once when I was a kid. I could never remember what it was called, then I ran across it in the $4 bin at Walmart and picked it up. Very enjoyable.

They test screened that film at the theater I worked at. At first it didn't test well, so one of the changes made was to replace the lights inside the theater with cool bluish ones - during that screening it tested very well and people commented about how the film made them feel so "cold."

Agreed about the "cold" feel to the movie. Saw it in the theater as a kid, and I was frozen, despite the fact it was 95F outside.

Great movie!!

Thank you for bringing this up, Clark.

The author wrote a memiour of his time as a young man leading up to WW2 & his landing & fighting on Sicily & Italy.

I can't remember the title but it's a good read.

Never Cry Wolf is my favorite movie of all time. Its much deeper than the simple storyline it presents. I think there are a lot of interesting parallels about how our society is not pulling the sick from the herd. Thus the permeation of disease and rising health care costs.

There is always a cost for fucking with nature.....

Good flick, have not seen that in many years...

While I was up there I went over to Dawson city and actually saw Jack London's cabin that he wrote his stories in - it's about as big as my bedroom...
