My Side of the Mountain (1969)


An adventure directed by James B. Clark, written by Jean Craighead George.
A boy takes his pet raccoon and goes to live off the land in the Catskill mountains.
Like I've said before, I like pioneer and mountain-man films. This is no exception (except that it's a mountain-boy). The main character is good and the plot kept my attention. It's hard to imagine some kid doing this today in our high-tech society of brain-dead sheeple. I don't imagine homeland security would take too kindly to it, thinking he might be a terrace. For this, I rate it good.
