Lewis found out that human bodies are going to fail too. Having a compound fracture out in the wilderness forced Mr. Survival to rely on his city boy buddies to save him.
Lewis did get in an epic kill shot.
Except for that one, infamous scene, I liked the movie
But the reputations to those living in WNC and north Georgia were a disservice.
The mountain folks are generally good hearted and church going.
Kind, gentle, hard working……..a lot like the scene around the dinner table at the end of the movie
Boorman took the ugly in life and made his movie
I remember that part when Mr Survivalist suddenly becomes a burden to the others. Always reminded me of the frailty of MAN IN THE WILDERNESS.
Ever notice that they realized they were back to Civilization when they found the wrecked and stripped car in the river?
