Liam Neeson 6’4” Alpha Male
The Grey is a 2012 American adventure film directed by Joe Carnahan and starring Liam Neeson. It follows a number of men stranded in Alaska after a plane crash, who are forced to survive using little more than their wits as a pack of wolves stalks them. The film is based on the short story "Ghost Walker" by Ian MacKenzie Jeffers, who also co-wrote the screenplay with Carnahan.
===============================================
In your busy busy life I can’t expect you to see every movie out there but THE GReY is so outstanding beginning with "gray is a color and grey is a colour". A group of oil-rig roughnecks are left stranded on the sub-arctic tundra after their plane experiences a complete mechanical failure and crashes into the remote Alaskan wilderness. The survivors, battling mortal injuries, biting cold and ravenous hunger, are relentlessly hunted and pursued by a vicious pack of rogue wolves.
In 124 minutes it made perfectly clear to me what might become us if we lack our means of defense now so assumed that it requires film and the “suspension of disbelief” to appreciate that even a pack of oil-rig roughnecks is no match for a pack of wolves. Said another way it is that we ain’t so special or all-powerful without the systems we have over time amassed – here in this movie the lost rifle – without it – the wolves are more than equal these rough men who in turn are more than most of we soft readers.
