Chuck, Michelle and Buck on an European Production, not bad!!!
14 October 2020
How I purchase the brandy new version Harrison Ford's The Call of the Wild, I've decided revisit this old version to make a collating before watch the newest Blu-Ray version, Chuck Heston as my favorite actor ever had 48 years old, the movie was an European production, shot on location on Spain and Norway, bringing a fine casting as the sexy Michelle Mercier, sadly the stigmatized Spaghetti actor George Eastman who brought his character together and Rik Bataglia as well to assemble the story, the movie itself was very faithful on Jack London's novel, there are many bold sequences of extreme hardship on those rugged frozen mountains, also a trustworthy crowed gathered at Klondike and Dawson City at Gold Rush's era, all sort of people, all them dreaming becoming rich overnight, crooks, prostitutes, suppliers of goods and tools, booze's sellers, whatever we can imagine were there, The Dog Buck is the highlight, however when he finds a female wolf to mate and afterwards seeing the poppies is a breathtaking vision, the low points certainly were the music score and George Eastman, overall an average production, the DVD needs a upmost restoration!!

Resume:

First watch: 1996 / How many: 3 / Source: TV-DVD / Rating: 7
