Anachronisms: When Grey Owl's publisher Champlin arrives by airplane, to convince Grey Owl to go on tour in England, the airplane shown is clearly a DeHavilland DHC-2 "Beaver" on floats. This scene is set in approximately 1935, but the DeHavilland Beaver did not make its first flight until 1947. moreFAQ

I got to say it has fantastic photography, the camera really catches the landscape, beautiful! At first it cracked me up to see Pierce Brosnan with long hair, never mind the pigtails, but you get over that pretty quickly. He does a good job considering you do not think Pierce Brosnan and native American Indian dude and place them together, therefore pulling it off pretty well.
My only complaint was Pony. Pony severely irritated me. I get she's supposed to bring some kind of revelation to Archie but she does it in a most annoying way possible (to me personally). I hated seeing Archie, man of the forest reduced to being whipped by some ignorant fool (and lets face it, in the ways of the forest, she is ignorant). I also didn't find the idea that Archie could stand being even near her believable, considering everything she does is out of pure stubborn ignorance and idiocy. This isn't Annie Galipeau's fault, as the script is asking her to be stubborn etc etc. I really do hate the cliche stubborn woman who 'bravely' battles the elements and determinedly refuses to 'turn back', annoying the heck out of the main character, when really she should have stayed home and knitted. Overall, I give this movie 6 and a half out of 10. It was cool and all but I was forced to take off 3 and a half points because I was getting increasingly frustrated with Pony.
