Tyler says, "In the end, there were no simple answers. No heroes; no villans. Only silence. But it began the moment that I first saw the wolf. By the act of watching, with the eyes of a man, I had pointed the way for those who followed." excerpt from movie

The movie is, "Never Cry Wolf" written by Farley Mowat, a Canadian author. Tyler is played by Charles Martin Smith, one of his best roles, I believe.

A wonderful movie, that I have seen many times. Thank you for the memories..
