The death of his father forces him to go to the low lands to earn enough money to get the farm back on its feet.

  • "Loosely based on Banjo Paterson's poem about the recapture of a runaway colt this "kangaroo western" attempts to articulate a populist form of Australian nationalism within the classic western genre. The cattle baron (Kirk Douglas) is paired with the 'iconic' Jack Thompson to colonise a beautiful yet dangerous Australian landscape that invokes both Marlboro commercials and R.M. Williams bush gear, Crawford television melodramas and Hollywood westerns. Issues such as ecology and animal liberation appear, however the unifying nationalist myth suppresses Jessica's independent feminism through the film's stereotypical equation of women with a passive landcape to be cultivated or a wild horse to be tamed."@en
  • "Escape to Grizzly Mountain: "Jimmy, a young boy trying to gain acceptance from his peers, is horrified when he sees a circus trainer abusing a bear cub. One of the circus employees tells Jimmy that there is a magic cave in the hills nearby that can transport people to another time, and that maybe he can use it to help the bear. Jimmy does some exploring, finds the cave, and is amazed to find himself transported back to the early 1800's, where he encounters Jeremiah, a nature-loving mountain man with a bear friend of his own. Jeremiah agrees to come to the future and help out Jimmy, but the 21st century is quite different from the 19th, and springing the bear cub will not be as easy as Jeremiah thinks."--IMDB."
