Dersu Uzala.

Bloody eck! Is that "arthouse"?

The Shining (the bit at the end in the maze)

"Touching The Void" - watch it curled up on the sofa with a steaming mug of scalding hot cocoa.

That's a good one.

Yes, crevasses are cold, and that film had a cold one. Other films have crevasses obviously made from Styrofoam. Pitiful, yes, but it all adds to a camp enjoyment, IMVHO.

BTW, A Perfect Storm has just started on the Box.

Cold water films are strictly off-limits on this thread. No " Cruel Sea" stuff, please! Ice and snow only.

At Ease, Company...

I think it was a Christmas TV Special a few years back, a good one.

Great stuff, and thanks. They don't make them like that any more.

Fab soundtrack...almost Hank Marvin.

The Thing. Gripping to silly in about an hour and a half!

Thanks for the posts, and please keep them coming. There are a number of films suggested about which I know nothing. I will totter to Play.com and get them all.

Meanwhile, a small quiz...

In which film did a hero, in extremis, turn to his colleague, and say...

"Get the snow shoes" ?

The actor managed to say it with a straight face.

No prize, BTW.

Not a snow one, but I was lovely and warm two hours ago, then sat and watched 'Perfect Storm' on the beeb, and all that wind, rain, and waves mean I've had to pop the heating back on for a bit before I go to bed

I don't even like the film, but hey, any excuse to watch George Clooney

Heroes of Telemark is great, but the real story is even more amazing.

More people should watch Atanarjuat (aka The Fast Runner), a superb Inuit film. Yes, you heard me right...

Yes, I read the real story. Quite unbelievable endurance, and humbling. We are lucky people.

I will seek out "The Fast Runner".

Best wishes to you all.
