I remember watching this movie as a 12- or 13-year-old and like it a lot. So I thought now, almost 30 years later, I’d watch it again… and recently I did just that. Like the trailer above, the movie feels very dated and that’s OK, as it’s nearly 30 years old, and the original story was written over 100 years ago by Jack London.
I’ve been wanting to watch Iron Will, a movie I remember also watching as a child and thinking about that one reminded me of this one. I can’t find Iron Will at the local library but this one was available so I was quick to check it out.
