tambais To all who love SEQUIOA, you have great taste in good ol' films. By now, you all know TNT has shown it in '08, and it IS available on VHS (got it some years ago). Growing up in N.J., it was on the TV all the time; out here in California, it was shown back in the '80's at an "old movie" theater with Jean Parker's name headlining the marquee. I also have the Vance Hoyt book--quite good, but the girl is a guy. For the record, if the archives of my memory are still intact, the movie was filmed over a period of 2 years (was Jean's first(?), but not the first released, obviously), so that the real cub and fawn could grow together naturally. The nature shots in the beginning alone could very well have been inspiration for many of Walt's later doc's...who knows???
toza-1 I have read all the listed reviews on this wonderful old film and agree with all the sentiments. I appear to be most fortunate to possess two video copies of the film, one of which is in very good condition. All the children I have shown it to have loved it. Many children these days sneer at the suggestion that anything filmed in black and white could be worth watching. However, upon viewing Sequoia, they soon realize that this is anything but the case. It is sad that when they ask where they can purchase their own copies, that the film is completely unavailable commercially. This seems strange given that it has aired on Pay TV here in Australia, albeit not for 15 years or so. Let's hope a master is discovered and given due treatment for its fans.
bmarquardt I saw this move as a young teenager in the 1950's. As I remember it, it was a great movie and I would like to be able to purchase a home version of it in VHS or DVD. I do not remember whether the movie was in color or black and white. I think this kind of movie would be valued by adults and young today even more than it was back then. I did not realize that this movie was made in the 30's. If it should ever become available to the public, I would like to have this brought to my attention. Thank you for the opportunity to express may opinion on this film. I remember two movies from my childhood that seem to stick in my mind. They are this movie and Desperate Search.
tony6a I saw this when I was in grammar school, in the 50s not realizing it was already 20 years old! I would love to see it again. I seem to remember reading an article about film preservation that said prints for Sequoia were not available anymore. Let's hope one pops up and a video and dvd follows. I picked up a Sequoia "big/little book" at a book sale with stills from the movie on every other page. If you are familiar with the movie you will know what big little books are, I guess.
