Alone in the Wilderness, the story of Dick Proenneke

Posted by Pete Berg on Tuesday, May 4th, 2010 at 3:16 pm

I watched “Alone in the Wilderness” last night, and it was one of the most endearing, heartwarming and folksy documentaries I’ve ever seen. Today, I just can’t stop thinking about it. It tells the story of Dick Proenneke, a 51 year old from Iowa, who moves to the Alaska wilderness in the ’60s and builds a permanent homestead there. He lived there alone for the next 35 years, and recorded film of himself and the nature surrounding him. After his death in 2003, a filmmaker produced three films from his footage and meticulous notes.

I’m not sure if anyone else will find it as interesting or entrancing as me, but here is the first ten minutes of “Alone in the Wilderness.” If you like it, I highly encourage you to watch the rest of this film, as well as the other two films in this series:

Joshua Sacco Future President

Posted by Zach Capp on Tuesday, April 6th, 2010 at 11:13 am

Not too long ago, a video was posted on P.H. of a little boy delivering Herb Brooks’ final speech from the movie “Miracle.” I just came across this video of the same lil’ fella performing a slightly tweaked version of that speech almost a year later at the opening day for the Boston Red Sox earlier this week. I wonder how long he rehearsed this with his Father…

A dog who really needs a hug

Posted by Pete Berg on Monday, March 15th, 2010 at 1:04 pm

“Edie – rescued yesterday an hour before euthanasia. Edie was so scared at the shelter and was scheduled to be euthanized yesterday. She was so lucky to have Bronwyne visit the shelter and save her life. I just helped with calming her down and showing everybody how these dogs can be easily managed with a little bit of love and patience.”

This is so sad, but also heartwarming.
