  Never Cry Wolf - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Never Cry Wolf is a book by Canadian author Farley Mowat, published in 1963.
It was adapted into a moderately successful movie of the same name in 1983 by director Carroll Ballard, starring Charles Martin Smith, Brian Dennehy, and Zachary Ittimangnaq.
It is presented as a first-person narrative of Mowat's research into the nature of the North American wolf; however, there is some controversy over whether much of the book is indeed factual.

 Amazon.com: Never Cry Wolf (Widescreen Edition) (1983) : Video   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
For the first 45 minutes or so, Never Cry Wolf is content to be a conventional "Man and Nature" film, with the "natives" being set up in the "noble savage" archetype--they are the ideal, the "good guys," the righteous ones, while White man is evil (except for our hero Tyler).
Never Cry Wolf takes the old archetype of civilized man being dropped into nature and finding it a "purer," "richer" existence, and stands it on its head.
Indeed we never find out who is responsible for the film's final act of carnage, and that is one of the film's greatest strengths.

Of course, it should be noted that Never Cry Wolf isn't at all about werewolves.
Never Cry Wolf is an odd movie - and I really found the atmospheric first half magnetically engaging.
Though I can see where some would classify these parts as 'slow' or 'boring', the film works best when the lead is dropped in the Canadian wilderness and it keeps it basic.

Charles Martin Smith plays green biologist Tyler, sent by the Canadian government to "prove" that the wolves are depleting the caribou herds, but what he finds is a natural world in perfect harmony where he becomes a tolerated outsider.
Dumped unprepared in the wilds by a hard drinking bush pilot (Brian Dennehy), Tyler learns survival skills from the aged Eskimo who saves his life and the rules of coexistence from a neighboring wolf (which results in a literal pissing contest as man and beast mark their respective territories).
Tyler's journey culminates in the majestic run with the wolf pack, an exhilarating sequence where for an instant he becomes one with natural environment of the wilds.
