- great movie
I watched this movie when I was a boy.
It made me want to live in the mountains and do just as he had done.

Movies have changed and they never make them like this anymore.

I would love to recommend this book to a friend because

I would also not want to recommend this book to a friend
because if my friend is not that much of a wilderness guy/girl,
then what is the point of buying it?

- A TRUE CLASSIC, A MUST SEE FOR ALL AGES
This is a must see, for all ages. It's a true classic. It's a movie that will stay with you and you will want share with your kids and grandkids. This kind of movie comes along once in a generation. You'll love it and want to share it. Thanks

- A forgotten masterpiece from a forgotten time in history
After not seeing this movie since it was made in 1968, I found myself finding new viewpoints that had previously been missed when I, too, was the age of the young boy. One thing which I hear is that the young boy who portrayed Sam, Teddy Eccles, overacts. Well, it must be understood that there was no way to really teach children how to act. In a story like this, we have to believe that the boy must have boned up on living alone from not only reading Thoreau but also from trying his skills out privately. ... Read More
