Seraphim Falls (2006)
A film/documentary based in Alaska, with a man called Dick Prenoke ( sorry about the spelling). cant remember the actual name but its some where along the lines of Alone In the Wild. its on my hard drive somewhere so ill check when i get home
Is that the film that was on a chrstmas about the guy who is dropped in Alaska to study wolves and ends up eating mice unitl he is befriended by an Innuit hunter? The film I'm thinking of had Brian Dennehy as the pilot. For soem reason i thought it was called Cry Wolf but I may well be wrong on that........
no, that isn't it.

Peter Weir (The Director of Master and Commander, Gallipoli and several other worthwhile films) has completed work on 'The Way Back' a film based on the book 'The Long Walk' by Sławomir Rawicz. It tells the 'true' story of six men who escaped from a Soviet Gulag in Siberia and traveled 6500 km through the Gobi Desert, Tibet and down into India.
The trailer for the film may be viewed here.
Looks quite entertaining and possibly has a few 'bushcrafty' elements.
However its worth pointing out that the story may actually be a fiction, or may be based on someone elses story, rather than the one told by Sławomir Rawicz, his wikipedia entry provides more information to any who may be interested.
"Deliverance" has a bit. Canoeing/camping etc.

"The Earthling" A small boy in Australia loses his in the bush. An old guy finds him and teaches him how to survive. I remember the end showed the old guy had cancer and had gone into the bush to die. Very vague now, but one of the details I remember is the old guy making spear and waiting outside a wombat hole and telling the boy "we need to eat some fat"....great movie and inspired me to get out into nature.
