Out of all adaptations of the ballet and short story, this has gotta be my favorite version of The Nutcracker and the Mouse King.

I hope you like rodents! ^^

Never Cry Wolf (1983). A government researcher, sent to research the "menace" of wolves in the north, learns about the true beneficial and positive nature of the species.

Is there a director that better understands a person's ability to connect to an animal than Carroll Ballard? While this feels spiritually in tune with his films Fly Away Home and The Black Stallion, this one physically supplants us in the deepest wilderness to pretty magical affect. Gorgeously shot, deeply human and honestly pretty moving, it's Disney at its best (and god, why don't they make films like this anymore?) 8/10.

Fly Away Home: It is difficult to convey the influence the 1996 film Fly Away Home by Carroll Ballard had on me in my early teenage years. First of all, it was based on a true Canadian story that featured my country's beautiful flora and fauna. It instilled in me a patriotic feeling I don't believe I had experienced before. The filming location in Ontario resembled a piece of land in Quebec's Eastern Townships where my uncle had built a cabin and my family vacationed when I was a child. Those memories were some of my fondest, and Fly Away Home brought them right back to me. It also featured Anna Paquin, a Manitoba-born actress I had come to appreciate in other roles such as the young Jane Eyre in Franco Zeffirelli's 1996 film adaptation. For some reason, the costumes designed for her character by Marie-Sylvie Deveau became a style ideal for me to emulate, and I became strongly aware of my own fashion sense. It still inspires me to this day.

Charles Martin Smith devoted almost three years to filming "Never Cry Wolf" (1983). Smith said, "I was much more closely involved in that picture than I had been in any other film. Not only acting, but writing and the whole creative process." He also found the process difficult. "During much of the two-year shooting schedule in Canada’s Yukon and in Nome, Alaska, I was the only actor present. It was the loneliest film I’ve ever worked on." During the filming, he became so enamored of the Northwest that he decided to relocate to Vancouver, British Columbia, where he has resided since the mid-1980s.

Nearly a third of the movie's budget went into filming the scene of Smith's character running with the caribou. Several helicopters flew overhead, herding the caribou, before the wolves were released. The filming took twenty hours a day for a month

Although all the wolves used in the movie were tamed, the cameraman had to hold a chicken above his head to draw their attention to him. When needed, he gave the poultry a good jolt, causing the chicken to shake its wings violently and making the wolves stare, puzzled.

Carroll Ballard, director of "Never Cry Wolf," asked Smith to write much of the narration for the film. Smith also performed in a lengthy scene with wolves and caribou in which he was entirely naked. IMDb says that this is NOT the first Disney film to feature naked buttocks. That honor goes to "Pollyanna" (1960) which opens with a close-up of naked male buttocks as a child swings on a rope into a pond.

While working on this production, Smith formed a solid friendship with Farley Mowat, the author of the book that the film was based on, and the two remained friends until Mowat's death in 2014. (Wikipedia/IMDb)

The most comprehensive survey of the work of Maurice Sendak, the most celebrated picture book artist of all time—with previously unpublished archival materials

Published in conjunction with the eponymous Sendak retrospective touring museums in the United States and Europe in 2022–24, Wild Things Are Happening emphasizes Maurice Sendak’s relationship to the history of art and the influences of his art collecting on his images. It features previously unpublished sketches, storyboards and paintings that emphasize Sendak’s creative processes. Bringing together a broad diversity of perspectives on the award-winning artist, the book includes an extended essay by the renowned art historian Thomas Crow that traces the genesis and cultural contexts of Sendak’s most famous book, Where the Wild Things Are. It also includes interviews and appreciations by many of Sendak’s key collaborators, including Carroll Ballard, Michael Di Capua, John Dugdale, Spike Jonze, Twyla Tharp and Arthur Yorinks. Maurice Sendak (1928–2012) was born in Brooklyn, New York, to Jewish immigrant parents from Poland. A largely self-taught artist, Sendak wrote and illustrated over 150 books during his 60-year career, including Kenny’s Window, Very Far Away, The Sign on Rosie’s Door, Nutshell Library (consisting of Chicken Soup with Rice, Alligators All Around, One Was Johnny and Pierre), Higglety Pigglety Pop!, Where the Wild Things Are, In the Night Kitchen and Outside Over There. He collaborated with such celebrated authors as Meindert DeJong, Tony Kushner, Randall Jarrell, Ruth Krauss, Else Holmelund Minarik and Isaac Bashevis Singer, and he illustrated classics by the Brothers Grimm, Melville and Tolstoy.
