- Jack London's "To Build A Fire"
Starring Ian Hogg
Narrated by Orson Welles
Written, Produced and Directed by David Cobham
"To Build a Fire" is a short story by American author Jack London, published in 1908.
"To Build a Fire" is about an unnamed male protagonist who ventures out in the subzero boreal forest of the Yukon Territory. He is followed by a native dog and is en route to visit his friends-ignoring warnings from an older man from Sulphur Creek about the dangers of hiking alone in extreme cold. The protagonist underestimates the harsh conditions and slowly freezes to death.
"To Build a Fire" is an oft-cited example of the naturalist movement that portrays the conflict of man vs. nature. It also reflects London's personal experiences in the Yukon Territory.

Absolutely excellent movie: written by Jack London; narrated by Orson Welles; brilliant directing by David Cobham-and Ian Hogg does a tour de force performance! It's one of those movies you can watch more than once and always take something new away.
Thank you so much. This film is a wonderful part of the great David Cobham's legacy.
All best
I totally agree! Just wish to emphasize my belief that Orson Wells is one of the best narrators ever. If you would like to experience the #1 best ever, please watch "The Horror of Becoming Lost". Harrowing!
I thought it was CANNON narrating..
😆 the dog thinks he's playing! And after he dies,the dog will eat him and because he's a husky,will probably make it out of this thing alive! 😆.... YAY PEPPER!!!!
The budget for this film was probably next to nothing, and there are no special affects. And still, I was on the edge of my seat from beginning to end. Hollywood could take a lesson from this movie.
True, but I refuse to consider this base, sorry excuse of a man as a 'protagonist'. He's basically like moving scenery as far as I'm concerned. Really disgusting creature, that main character. Anybody remember what the dad says at the end of The Split Cherry Tree? 'Be honest, be kind to the animals and don't bother the snakes.' THAT's a likeable main character, not this pig.
@@hatchetmouth8211 Geese what's your problem. What did that man do to you?
Boo-boo bear I saw this movie quite a few years ago and That’s exact way that I felt. So simple , a dog and a man out in the wilderness , a man narrating it ! And I’ve never been on the edge of my seat before like this ,throughout the whole movie! It’s been my favorite movie since then!
@@dakabaka4912 Plz re-read his comment maybe?. Needing a real protagonist. Who needs and wants an anti-hero? Going down, being base is common, rising to what we could be is art and examples wanted, also for inspiration and reminder.
@@hatchetmouth8211 a protagonist does not necessarily mean a hero or good guy or someone who is likable, a protagonist is the person who is most important to the plot. I think the point of the story wasn’t to make us like the main character, I think it was to showcase the greed, arrogance, and carelessness of man and how nature does not heed to our goals and ambitions. I don’t mean to offend my guy, I just really enjoyed this film and liked the tense moments it showcased.
I cannot imagine going through that wilderness without the "Five C's" of survival. Combustion, Container, Cutting, Cover and Cordage.
This film is a testament to arrogance and unfounded confidence, and it's consequences.
The story also illustrates how hypothermia (and severe stress) can detrimentally alter your judgement.
Lighten up Francis it's a great story
This was the 1800s and it wasn't a weekend camping trip
😆 the dog thinks he's playing! And after he dies,the dog will eat him and because he's a husky,will probably make it out of this thing alive! 😆.... YAY PEPPER!!!!
Have always remembered this story, especially when preparing for overnight winter camping.
A lifesaver tip. When you camp in wintertime, and you use cabins or other shelters, always leave a nice fire ready to be lit laid, always, and leave 1 match (or more) sticking out of the pack so cold and desperate fingers can grasp them. It might not be life and death, but it might be very very appreciated, more than most things you may do for a stranger.
Tbone MacKay watch this every winter..
Charles Loftin Watch this every summer. ;-)
Very true and good advice. The thing that always got to me is that the far north is so beautiful and so peaceful in winter. Yet, if you are not prepared it can be terribly unforgiving.
lifesaver tip. don't camp in the wintertime
I like you.
"you see man is nature, and nature..... Well. Nature always wins."
was this quote in the film?? or is it from somewhere else? i wanna use it in an essay im writing but i can't find it.
My father Anthony Short wrote the script with David and I've never seen this film. They worked on a few projects together and my father always spoke very highly of David. Thank you for giving me the chance to see it.
wow how come you never saw it untill 2 years ago I really like Jack London´s storys, novells he was a great story teller
What an underrated film. Ian Hogg's ability to create emotion through his actions, Orson Wells' narration, the sound score! Stunning
The actor wearing the dog suit was amazing.
It wasn't a man in a dog suit, dummie. It was a cat.
@@cradl3d Its a lizard bro
It was an ant buddies
nah, It was a hamster
Nah bro it was your mom!
I can't help but laugh because he's trying to kill the dog and the dog is like "Yeah!! Let's play!"
Really the dog would sense the hostility or harshness of the man's radiation/thoughts/feelings and be warned, so not completely realistic. Unless the dog's senses are a bit numbed from the freezing cold, too. Terrifying tale.
Definitely think the dog was mis-cast>
nvsbl2
"Bah, it's not a human. Its life doesn't hold any worth."
Seriously. I may have considered killing the dog for the sake of heat, too, but that dog still has a life, and we wouldn't have gotten this far in the world without animals.
Thatt's wht you call instinct. animals have a natural instinct to survive against the harshest conditions. this is a man who has been reared in the lap of comfort and does not understand the vagaries of nature. Besides he thought he knew everything- a egoist- and paid for it with his life! The dog knew and worked twards survival.
Let’s not forget, the dog knew better than to venture out in those lethal temperatures. Dumb animal, my foot. The dog should have killed the man for heat.
The guy on the violin is just shreddin 😂
LOL
I read this in high school and had always filed it away as one of my favorite novels because of its perfect economic storytelling. Reminiscent of Hemingway's "The Old Man and the Sea." and Steinbach's "Of Mice and Men". The cinematography too is economical. However, it proved to be perfect in its simplicity. Pepper is the Husky, who follows the empty-headed man, basically waiting for the fire that all men brought with them when they went out alone in -75 degree weather. Well every man, but this one.
Pepper is a riot. He is native to this frozen tundra. He instinctually knows the reality of his world and how to survive. He is frisky and encourages his companion to keep moving, when he keeps losing his fires to one quirk or another.
The glacier-covered environment is both exquisite and treacherous. The warm, velvety bass of Orson Wells' famous voice envelopes us from a distance - protecting us from the harsh cold. While simultaneously giving us the most intimate blow-by-blow account of actually freezing to death. Thank you Mr. London for this impossibly gorgeous story. Spot on.
For anyone who has been there, this is a very tough film to watch and shows most intensely that survival is a DNA reminder and uniter of all men down thru time! Jack London was quite the man!
Very tough.
But we should appreciate the effort put forth by the actor his dedication is so unbeatable ❤️
"The trouble with him was that, he was without imagination...He was quick and alert in the things of life and not...in the significances" Loved the short story when I read it...and now the film. love from 🇹🇿
The dog was having so much fun when he was trying to kill him lol
One difference I noticed was that in this film, though very faithful to the original in most respects, the dog clearly loves the man in a way the book dog did not. The dog leaps up playfully at the man instead of running off. It "warmed" my heart.
Probably not easy to make the dog actually seem scared. Besides, dog’s gonna dog. In the story, the narrator knows the dogs mind. We are foolish enough to *think* we know what a dog is thinking, but we can’t really know just based on our typical anthropomorphizing.
This is why they’ve taken to use cg dogs 😂 the dog knows what’s up, the original dog was cold because it knew the man didn’t care. This dog was clearly having a good time and sensed good intent. And it would be heartbreaking if they made the dog actually abused and afraid like in the story.
@@dmanstarr we don’t know what they’re thinking, but it’s pretty easy to know how they’re feeling after you get to know dogs. We’ve evolved alongside them after all, and just like dogs can understand many human gestures by instinct, we can understand many of theirs. At the very least, you can sense a hostile dog from a mile away, while this one was in a very playful mood.
@@TumblinWeeds Google anthropomorphize numbnuts.
We were watching this at school and I actually started crying at around 35:00
Bro when I read this all I was thinking was how fucking good it was. This part was the most intense
Assignment, anyone?
PIOLIN the BOSS yes
Yeah. Had to read this in 10th grade.
yep.
PIOLIN the BOSS saaaame
I watched this exact film around 6 years ago in high school. I'm eating a sausage mcbiscuit and couldn't help but remember his frozen biscuits.
I love this story. Especially because at age 12 I was lost in the wilderness like this, cross-country skiing. Very scary. So, I can relate a lot to this story. I read To Build a Fire three years before I got lost. And yes, when I was lost, I thought of this story, and it scared me even more, in the midst of already being lost and scared! Not lol then. But, yes, lol now. :) Fortunately, my fate was not the same as "the man's"!
Oh, and... What we really have here, in this movie, is an actor and his dog, and a camera. Legend has it, that, the night after filming, he went home, his dog cutely curled up on his bed, and they slept a cozy warm sleep. The end. (Sorry, I couldn't help but to redesign the ending! heheh! :-))
Not only did you make the ending 10x better for me, but now I’m also wondering how long you were lost. How long were you, and were you okay in the end?
Hey uh i don’t know if you’ll see this any time soon but do you remember the differences between the story and this film? Perhaps the main character goes somewhere different or says something different than in the story?
My teacher would throw this on whenever she didn’t feel like doing work. We had to have watched it over 7 times when I was in 9th grade. 6:17 The odd cheery music brought me back. ^^ Good film.
i love how at 38:40 its suppose to be so serious and life threatening... but the dog is actually playing lol
Yeah that husky was just funny. I laughed trough the whole fight choreography. The man desperate for survival and the dog not feeling threatened and playing with him 😂😂😂 Dogs are too intuitive to feel threatened when they are not.
I'd fail my role here cause I start laughing uncontrollably.
Well this is probably the 1000 times of watching this movie since 1975 Jack London you were so brilliant
IM SORRY but his face at 27:00 when the snow fell on top of the fire KILLED ME!!!
All I can think about is pepper wanting to play while he tries to kill pepper
Pepper's face waking up from a nap at 27:00 like, "wth is going on dude?" had me dying haha.
Possibly the most authentic story of a man freezing to death in arctic conditions. Jack London was the real thing.
I can personaly relate to the natural playful intelligence and survival ability of huskies. I travelled alone with my own Huskamute through winter mountains in the Spanish Pyrenees, and his weather instincts saved my life on one occasion. R.I.P Shadow 'El Sombra'.
This is such an incredible and underrated film. Captivating and slightly disturbing throughout the whole thing. Ian Hoggs and Jack London are amazing artists
Is it weird I find this more disturbing and chilling (no pun intended) than any slasher or supernatural scary movie I’ve ever seen? This is legitimate horror
Because you can practically feel the cold and can feel the man's desperation as he struggles to survive.
And anyone who has experienced extreme cold can acutely relate
I agree
It is very disturbing and chilling, my friend. Camping in the wildness always amazes me. But the story makes me worry.
I agree. I read this in high school and it gave me a strangely horrifying feeling.
I watched this as a kid many moons ago. I think it aired on NBC, but I could be wrong. I watched this drinking hot coffee, smoking a cigar and under a thick blanket. No way was I going to freeze!!! 🤣
Besides the Genius of Orson Wells, who else could possibly narrate this film so perfectly?
Morgan Freeman or David Attenbourough 🤣
Jack London was a master! One of my favorites! I loved this. I am going to search for more of his films like this! Masterpiece!!!!!!! When I want to step into another world, Jack London is one of my go to authors!
of all the short stories I've read in school, this is the one I remember best.
Mark Phelps watch this every winter..
me too
Full of pathos and wonderfully told. touches me to the core!
Movie shown to the 4th graders in 1976
Ew.. this story is boring
This is more than art. The symptoms and experiences are the textbook cases of hypothermia to perfection. I am not familiar with Jack London’s direct inspiration for this short story, I only know that this has been the reality of many men over many centuries. It still happens. As an avid outdoorsman of over 20 years experience in Alberta, Ontario, BC, James Bay Quebec and Yukon/ NWT, I can say I’ve avoided the sketchiest disasters but have gotten wet, in winter, and had long walks home. I have had animal encounters and glacier near misses. I have youthful memories of my teenage years, a friend and I walking home from a winter hike. My friend’s feet were frozen for a while and two kilometres from home I gave him my boots and walked home in the thick arctic wool socks the army cadets were issued.
I am totally addicted to this story the way Jack London describes the physicality there is no comparison - the despair the horror the tension
As a 6th grader doing a Socratic seminar on this piece of literature, I recommend reading the story before you watch the movie. The movie is pretty good, but you should take the time to read it, as it is a wonderful story.
How did the socratic seminar go...
I just love happy endings
Ay senior
Absolutely stunning! My hat is off. Now my ears are cold. Better put it on again. Brrr.
+D Cairns lol
Make that two of us. Excellent portrayal of Jack London's classic. cannot have been better
LOLLOLOLOO,O.....LLOLLOLLOOHEHEHEHAHAHAHhahahaheee
An excellent adaptation of a (literally) chilling story. Thanks for uploading.
Love the Jack London short story, and this adaptation is perfect. Orson Welles was great.
I know what cold is , when I was about 12 was out duck hunting , dog fell thru the ice about 100 feet from shore , I watched as the dog struggled to get ontop of the ice and stupidly I crawled all the way out to where the dog was , reached out grabbed him and got him ontop of the ice , crawled back and got about 15 foot from land and went thru the ice. Only thing that saved me was I was only about 1/2 mile from home. I ran like hell , thru the woods , got to the house and ran upstairs and turned the tub water as hot as it would go. I remember that day over 50 years ago everytime I see a frozen pond or lake.
Truly.
Good for you. 🏆
I think this is an excellent film that holds up really well over time. I always recommend it to anyone reading or studying this incredibly written story.
The dog in London's short story was not a pet. It would NEVER have jumped around wanting to play with the man. The dog was hesitant and afraid of the man. It never felt love from the man and since it endangered its own life many times because the man forced it to step out onto thin ice I suspect the man may have even beaten it. The man apparently never even gave the dog a name and he certainly wouldn't have given the dog a nice collar. Other than the fact that someone's pet was used in this film, the actor did a great job and stayed true to the story.
I am 81 and didn't know there was a movie of tbaf. I read the story when I was in jr. high. I am from northern Minnesota and have been in -50. You may pick out the flaws in the film, but if you expect anyone to film in -75 then you need help.
I was thinking the same thing. In the first half, it just looks like any other day, not a cold snap. They'll obviously shouldn't actually film in extreme cold, though, and recreating the cold is very hard.
I love how the dog was playing with the action during serious scenes😅
I'm from the north, and I can tell just by watching this film that it's not cold there on that day. Practically balmy. If it was cold, Klondike cold, you'd see every one of his breaths, and the snow would be crunchy.
Ofcourse the filmmakers don't want to kill the actor
I have watched this twice and I read the story.. will never forget it.. Orsen Wells great reading of this story.. lends to the gravity of this tale.
I love this gem of a film and use it every year in my junior level English class for our unit on Realism and Naturalism. It is such a stark, simplistic example of the battle between man's free will and nature - how the protagonist refuses to adapt to an unfamiliar environment at his own peril. Calling Charles Darwin...
If you haven't seen it, I would highly suggest the PBS Masterpiece Theatre American Collection adaptation of Langston Hughes's short story "Cora Unashamed." It features Regina Taylor and Cherry Jones and is a valuable study in adapting from a shorter piece of writing to a feature length film. The tone and other elements are quite changed from the Hughes's original piece, but the themes remain evident and and my classes have had great discussions about why they think the screenwriter (Ann Peacock) made the choices she did.
It's so sad how poor querying from modern technology can lead to the loss of history. I typed in multiple queries indicating "narration" "Orson Welles" "Death by freezing" and "Quest for fire" trying to find this with a hazy memory, and my rediscovery of this narration was fought long and hard combing through dozens of pages of results to find it. One of the most brilliant, haunting pieces I've ever read, and narrated just as hauntingly by the tragic Orson Welles.
The hardest part of watching this film is being from the north and being able to tell that its maybe only just below freezing on a nice spring day. Dude was probably sweating the whole time shooting this with all those layers on. The story though. Beyond accurate.
This was always one of my favorite stories as a young student. This and "a separate peace" are the pieces of literature. I remember most.
The bell rang before I could finish it at school. I hate everything about school, but anything related to the Klondike hits different, so you best believe I had to finish it at home.
I saw this in primary school and have wanted to see this again since.Thought about it so many times since. Here I am watching it 30 years later.
i am lucky enough to come from a generation in which literature was a major part of our education. we read lots of jack london, i'm glad we did. what a perspective!!!!
my man has the power of ice spit. 20 damage and a 15% of freezing an enemy
I first watched this in 5th grade back in 1974, in class.
I'm from northern Canada, and, yea, this was a story they told us really early on in school. Didn't need to tell us when it was -50C outside.
if he used a walking stick to feel for the water holes he would have lived
If he did a few things differently, he would of lived. Of course, if he had a partner, would've lived. If he counted the dog as a partner and used it for warmth instead of trying to kill it, would've of lived, been a bit more prepared, would've lived, sat down at the first fire for longer, would've lived, not had a serious case of hubris, would've lived, and among other things.
Adding props would take away the originality of the movie. i think it was made to fit and it turned out most wonderfully real and touching!
It was 70 below- he would’ve died even if he didn’t get wet
@@Redrover1760 I always thought the notion that if he had a partner he would have lived his ridiculous what if both of them fell into the water?
@@uncuckableAlpha Usually you should tread the path for the partner, and in case you do fall, you'd have someone to save you and warm you up.
The budget of this movie consists of a dog.... And uhhh.... Yeah
This was made in 1969 and it's off a book so yeah
Luckily after the man died they didn't haft to pay him 😝
Kunshiro considering it’s based on a book with realism you’d think so hm
Well basically the story is about the perils and plight of a Cheechako hiking to his camp unprepared through the Yukon with his dog on an extremely bitter cold day. Not much of a cast needed except for the man, the dog, and the woods.
He got to use matches to start his fires. I would say that's the lifesaver lesson of this story.
That birch bark is an awesome kindling material. I used to carry several strips of it with me in case I needed to start a fire in a location where there were no birch trees nearby.
It’s like if oil was a tree
Geez I got cold just watching this
I was literally freezing right through the movie and instinctively kept feeling my fingers and toes.
Back in 1983 I think I got stuck on a chairlift in Colorado I was the only one that went up to work at the restaurant that day and I got stuck for an hour on the coldest recorded day of Colorado History it was with the windshield it was below a hundred degrees below zero and I went up not realizing how cold it was and I brought just sneakers a scarf no hat just a lite coat I wasn't going to ski that day so I just was going to work and the guy that operated the lift thought I for some reason was up and shut the lift down for 59 minutes and I got stuck in the most horrible position I ever could imagine I managed to live believe it or not how do you know this haha?
Dang i was kind of cold two while i was sick so my head was warm
I love JL. Absolutely a masterpiece. The music, the dog, man, winter.. EPIC!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you
the guy did a most excellent job acting the part. Wells, is, of course, supurb.
TBH the dog was smarter than the man! Saw this in 11th grade English class as a life lesson. I've loved it ever since! I'd love a DVD copy!
The fact that he is only called the Man
😂 lmaoooooo
i have a quiz on the story tomorrow, sooooo I'm watching the movie instead ;)
Me too
@@najlaasmari275 me too
Howd y’all do since the story is way different than the book?
Katie Dick ezy
Katie Dick plus it’s a short story that shouldn’t even take you half the time of this movie
I love this story! It's a perfect example of naturalism. How nature is the boss and we as humans can't control it.
Fabulous.... if you have never read the actual short story, DO IT..... from my childhood reading. Amazing. Jack London was a genius storyteller.
This was how I dressed for 20 below 0 deg F, working in the open for 2 hours then warm up in warm tent for 2 hours. A pair of thick knitted wool gloves (with fingers) then a pair of heavy fur lined mitten. When I need to use fingers to grab or pick, the wool gloves keep fingers warm for 5 minutes. Two pairs of heavy wool socks inside calf high water resistant boots, but still feel cold after 1/2 hour standing, had to move around for warmth. A heavy fur lined hat with thick wool face wrap, only eyes were exposed.To protect the extremities is the most critical part of working in extreme cold. 🤔🤨😵💫😎
That dog actually looks pretty cold
DR G because the dog is the smart one
Lol. Envy of the dog being warm in its natural covering.
I’m here because my English class watched this to learn about the prospect of realism.
It’s a great film!
We read this story in class, the only one I really liked. So I looked for a movie. I am going to be honest, I skipped a lot because I have homework but this is truly remarkable.
It helped me before by 12th isc board exams.... Thanks @David Cobham
How come the camera man didn’t help him????
+Luz Victor Gutierrez Because they wanted to remain true to the story upon which this was based...
+Luz Victor Gutierrez Gotta let nature take its course.
+Luz Victor Gutierrez Camera man was lazy. He let the poor guy freeze... ;)
Because it's a movie, not a documentary.
Nibble Mcnibbs I think you are wrong. This is obviously an education documentary.
pepper doing good acting🤣
Oscar for Pepper
Everyone knows you don't travel on foot through the Yukon in the middle of winter cause the music will kill ya dead.
You would think that the guy that was behind him at 45:25 would have helped him build a fire.
those were his imagination
I know the ones after that were. I got the impression that the other guy at 45:25 was accidentally in the shot.
Douglas Face that's just slenderman
+Project Boonda P lol
+Douglas Face I know right
It's been a year or more since I last saw this...I have forgotten just how well this was made...and Orson Wells' narration is expertly done and makes the story.
one of my favorite films
underrated. Damn good film.
when i was a kid, i was exploring a tiny stream on our land, in nov-dec, and my hands were immersed in the cold water for a length of time. at some point i lost all dexterity in my hands and ran back home. i got to the door and could not operate the doorknob, even with both hands i failed to open the door. it was a learning experience.
40:20 is funny it’s like he’s trying to hug himself
he feeds the birds but not his own dog???? that is so cruel
Noah Mathis what if they didn’t have food
Ikr
that's not his dog btw, its someone elses. (that person being unnamed)
@@altra972 bruh it doesn't matter lol it was his companion and deserves food more than random birds
its not his dog
I read this a while ago and never forgot it. Very good film.
My Dad, Ian Stuart, filmed this. He's now trying to get his head around how to operate a "Smart" TV, so he can have a trip down memory lane 🙄😂
Wow! That’s awesome! Did he get a chance to meet with Orson Welles?
@@stevena3333 Hi Steve, thanks for the kind word. TBH i don't think he did meet OW. Sadly he now has dementia (89 yrs old)
@@andystuart1533 I’m sorry to hear that. It’s a fantastic film and he did a great job capturing the this story. To have been able to work on a project like this written by the great Jack London and read by the great Orson Welles, it’s something to truly be proud of.❤️
@@stevena3333 Hi Steve, I'll be sure to pass on your kind words, he'll appreciate it. He's lived a full life including being part of and filming Chris Bonington's successful ascent of Everest's South West Face (Everest The Hard Way) Thanks again...
Really? Wow. Do tell him how amazing this film is
I remember this from Grade 11. never take chances with the cold.
One of the best stories ever. And a hard lesson in the maxim: “Man proposes and God disposes.”
Fun fact: frito chips are good for starting fires because they are so greasy, and water can only fuel a grease fire.
Incredible ! to make one actor movie so interesting!
+ArmenianKingdom Jack London was a great writer.
The Dog was a good little actor as well, and Orson Welles' voice-over is a character in itself.
Never liked the story when I first read at 11th standard preparing for ISC. It was devoid of characters, dialogues and was depressing like hell. The ending was not startling but an expected one. But few decades later it is the one that I remember most vividly. I see this through life, how treacherous it is to be overconfident in your capabilities and how easy the mind betrays you through a false sense of knowledge.
SAME BRO, GOOD LUCK FOR THE EXAMS day after tmrw
This movie is genius. I knew from the start the man was going to die. Yet I sat on the edge of my seat when he was at the second fire and shouting at my screen.
Real legends are seeing this in 2021
2021 was so last year.
@@nguyendailam6703multiple years ago even
To Build a Fire was one of the good stories Jack London wrote. He also wrote second rate stories, just for the money. At his best Jack London was a good story teller. He was ashamed of the low grade writing he did for money. There were opportunities for men like Jack London at the time, later in Hollywood Errol Flyn made a stand with his acting and fornications. Both died early in life as alcoholics. Both were social drop outs, who became entertainers, and neither knew how to survive.
I first saw this film in high school and have watched it every winter since. I'm watching it today because it it hot as heck out though.
The elements will Humble you.
what a great dog.
WATCHING THIS BEFORE ISC EXAM
Totally awesome. This is great. I remember watching it in jr high school in early '80's and it struck me and I could not forget it. Watching it now, and it is STILL very striking! This is GREAT in fact. Thanks for uploading it!
Remember watching this when I was in high school.. Thanks for uploading 🙂
As televiewers and readers, we could find many different ways to escape death in this situation, but here it's not abt that. In my opinion i think that the purpose of this story is that a man always need his neighbor even if he is the most powerful and rich person. As THE OLD MAN on Sulphur Creek said, ''a man should travel with a companion''. For the Others who said that he didn't give food to his own dog but he did for the bird. i can say that it was not the same case 'cause that piece of bread couldn't feed the dog but would be helpfull to the bird. At last the movie was exactly as written in the novel, so that's a very good job. Congratulations and thank you.
“Cold” is not something. It is in fact the sheer absence of everything.
Movies like this is why when I was little I thought actors actually died in movies, the way they portray the cold and the effect damn
