Movie Reviews of Alaska Silence & Solitude
Movie Review: I bought it
Summary: 5 Stars
I am watching this (okay and recording it) on PBS even as I type.
I love it and just bought it, because I DO love it, and I don't believe in free lunches.
Other comentators made good points, but there is excellent footage of Dick, some from "Alone in the Wilderness" but also excellent footage I've never seen before.
Dicks voice from "The Frozen North" must be later in his life than this film, because I honestly had a hard time understanding him in that film (which I also own) but here he's clear as a bell.
I will be spending many fall and winter days enjoying this, and I think those who love "Alone in the Wilderness" would like this one as well.
Check your local PBS, maybe you can catch it.
As soon as it's over, I'm watching it again...
Summary of Alaska Silence & Solitude
This is the follow-up DVD to "Alone in the Wilderness". Join nature filmmakers Bob Swerer Sr. and Bob Swerer as they venture into the remote wilderness of Alaska to experience and film the abundant wildlife in the region 25 years later. Along with spectacular Alaskan scenery you will encounter bull moose, caribou, dahl sheep and grizzly bear. You will also meet a man by the name of Dick Proenneke, who has by himself lived in this "one man wilderness" for over 30 years. For those who dream of a true wilderness experience, in the wilds of Alaska, this is the next best thing to being there.Similar DVD Movies
