Guest guest Posted March 1, 2002 Report Share Posted March 1, 2002 I remember an old movie called " Lost Horizons " , I think, showing how the Eskimo people lived traditionally. Would like to watch again. Anyone know if I have the name right? I believe Quinn is the star in it. I would like to watch it again from a NT percpective. Anyone know of any other movies or documentaries of NT interest?

One is called " The Savage Innocents " from 1959 and he plays a native Alaskan. See the movie's info here: http://us.imdb.com/Title?0053244. Could this be it?

Guest guest Posted March 8, 2002 Report Share Posted March 8, 2002 I bow before your research magnificence. I spent quite awhile looking through his movies on IMDB trying to figure out if any of them could be that one. Somehow, I repeatedly overlooked that one. Interestingly, after reading the synopsis and comments, I became somewhat convinced that I've seen this movie before too... -----Original Message----- From: Jill Nienhiser [mailto:jnienhiser@...] Sent: Friday, March 08, 2002 3:33 PM Subject: RE: The Mongolians old movies? ------------- Shari wrote: I remember an old movie called " Lost Horizons " , I think, showing how the Eskimo people lived traditionally.

Guest guest Posted March 9, 2002 Report Share Posted March 9, 2002 There was a 1937 movie, remade in 1973 (neither with Quinn in the cast): Lost Horizon, based on Hilton's novel of the same name, where a plane crash-lands in the Himalayas.
