I saw
Quest for Fire (Guerre du feu, La) on the DVD rental website. As soon as a return DVD gets to them, the company sends another from the customer's online listing. So, it's good idea to always keep twenty or more titles waiting. I received the disc this week and we watched it yesterday.
It is a very unique 1981 movie. I hadn't even heard of it before. The story involves prehistoric humans and contains no real language. It wasn't perfect in its implementation, but deserves unreserved praise for its sheer uniqueness.
In a way it related to yesterday's entry as a section was filmed in the Tsavo National Park in Kenya. Other shooting locations included:
Badlands, Alberta, Canada
Ben Nevis, Highlands, Scotland, UK
Bruce Peninsula, Ontario, Canada
Cairngorm Mountains, Highlands, Scotland, UK
Cathedral Grove, MacMillan Provincial Park, British Columbia, Canada
Iceland
Lake Magadi, Kenya
