Great trailers, jefferson. Haven't seen those films, but they look quite intriguing, so thanks for the recommendations. And for the reminder of THE BALLAD OF CABLE HOGUE; haven't thought of that one in years - actually haven't seen it since it was released, but I remember admiring it greatly.

Haven't seen this one, kos, but I was interested to see that it was directed by actor L. Q. Jones, a bit of surprise. Looks interesting.
For some reason it reminded me of a film with animals as the main characters, which I think is appropriate - THE INCREDIBLE JOURNEY (1962). There was a remake of that in 1993, HOMEWARD BOUND: THE INCREDIBLE JOURNEY, which is also entertaining. Oh, and then there's THE ADVENTURES OF MILO AND OTIS (1986), which I really enjoyed.

Came to think of this one, Roy Ward Baker's American movie Inferno 1953, where Robert Ryan is left to die in the desert by a greedy wife and her lover. The dry wilderness was made at Mojave Desert in both Arizona and California (Is it the same that stretches into two states?).    |

Yes, teleadm, the Mojave desert is primarily in southeastern California and southern Nevada, but it also reaches a bit into Arizona and even into Utah. In California it's a monster landscape - home of Death Valley, and often/usually has temperatures that are deadly. Haven't seen this film, but "Inferno" is doubtless a good name for it. I'll keep an eye out for it on TCM. It makes me sweat even to think about it.

Kon-Tiki (2012)
I didn't realize there was a narrative film version of this, Lebowskidoo. It looks really interesting. I remember seeing the documentary, KON-TIKI (1950) by Thor Heyerdahl about his actual experiences in the 1960s on late-night tv. It was nominated for an Oscar and was quite a thrill to see, given that it was the amazing journey in real time. But I think I would enjoy this theatrical version, too. Thanks for the recommendation.
We read the book and watched the old film when I was in junior high, so I was very interested in seeing the new movie. It's quite good.
