I just saw this film:thumbup:


http://www.destgulch.com/movies/deliver/


The canoe trip.
Few guys going camping.
Good story!
The woods as the panorama are wonderful!!!
Four guys going in the woods but just one like to be there!?
I'm asking myself, "why do the people who don't like woods go in there?"
"They go in anyway......."
WHY?
"To escape the city......."
 
You must be a very, very ,very young man! Good movie that had alot of people scarred of Backwoods Southern type folks. I am from the South and it had me scarred as well.
 
Man, that movie branded me for life. I think of it whenever I go into Appalachia. :eek: I know...not fair of me.

Actually, it's not the folks that will kill you up there, it's the whitewater. The Chatooga can be really tricky.
 
One of the best movies ever, but not one you would see repeatedly. Once is enough to remember it well.
 
Jon Voight carrried a nice Western (?) bowie knife in that film. I'll have to go back and double check. Anybody know for sure what knife he had?
 
I've seen it a few times, though always on TV which up here means variable degrees of sensorship, from zero to lots. It is certainly worth seeing more than once. There is lot's of stuff that one picks up one wiht further viewing. I don't tend to reduce the film to it's hillbilly rape elements alone.

Well I am younger than this movie's :)
RickJ tell me, is the panorama in the Chattooga Wild River beautiful still now as shown in the movie?:confused:
 
I have been living in New York State, I am in the Army and have not seen much of the South in the past 10 Years but most of the Mountains in East Tennessee where I am from are still as pretty as ever.
 
Ishiyumisan, I live within thirty miles of the area and for the most part the view from the river is almost like it was then. The surrounding area is growing everyday, thanks to the soon to be completed four lane highway to the Gainesville and Atlanta areas. There has been some problems with some of the "new" land owners around the river trying to stop boat traffic in some areas of the river, but thats happening on all our mountain area streams and rivers. Wheres Burt when you need him:D ?
