I recently had the pleasure of taking actor Josh Brolin ("W", "No Country For Old Men") out for a survival training course to help prepare for an upcoming film. He picked up the skills like an old pro.
Often times on courses, folks ask about accuracy in films in terms of survival skills. Some are better than others but below are a list of the ones that myself and my fellow instructors have enjoyed and either excel at showing the atmosphere or accurate skills (or both).
Some of these are not appropriate for youngsters.
Into The Wild
Last of the Mohicans
The Snow Walker
The Fast Runner
Black Robe
The Naked Prey
Quest for Fire
Castaway
Walkabout
Ten Canoes
Derzu Usala
The Edge
Jeremiah Johnson
Alive
Ten Canoes
Defiance (at theaters in 2009)
