additional comments on film

To all who love SEQUIOA, you have great taste in good ol' films. By now, you all know TNT has shown it in '08, and it IS available on VHS (got it some years ago). Growing up in N.J., it was on the TV all the time; out here in California, it was shown back in the '80's at an "old movie" theater with Jean Parker's name headlining the marquee. I also have the Vance Hoyt book--quite good, but the girl is a guy. For the record, if the archives of my memory are still intact, the movie was filmed over a period of 2 years (was Jean's first(?), but not the first released, obviously), so that the real cub and fawn could grow together naturally. The nature shots in the beginning alone could very well have been inspiration for many of Walt's later doc's...who knows???
