The gov­ern­ment agency that funds Tyler’s expe­di­tion sends all sorts of unnec­es­sary equip­ment with him - pal­lets full of toi­let paper, crates of gov­ern­ment car­bon-copy forms, etc. In any case, the won­ders of Net­flix brought the movie to us, and we watched it a cou­ple of week­ends ago. This is an inser­tion of the film­mak­ers, though - there is no ref­er­ence to a bas­soon in Mowat’s book. Tyler dis­cov­ers that the wolves sub­sist main­ly on small mam­mals, and that their rep­u­ta­tion as ruth­less killers of larg­er ani­mals is com­plete­ly unfounded.Ī while ago some­one (I can’t remem­ber who now - tell me if it was you) sug­gest­ed that I watch Nev­er Cry Wolf because it promi­nent­ly fea­tures a bas­soon. The film fea­tures Charles Mar­tin Smith as Tyler (a fic­tion­al­ized ver­sion of Mowat), a young biol­o­gist sent to study the impact of wolves on the cari­bou pop­u­la­tion in north­ern Cana­da. Nev­er Cry Wolf is a 1983 film adap­ta­tion of Far­ley Mowat’s 1963 book of the same name. First up: Nev­er Cry Wolf, which I first post­ed about in May 2009. I’m going to start things off here by repost­ing some bas­soon-relat­ed con­tent from a pre­vi­ous incar­na­tion of my blog.
