Thread Name: Lyr Req: Songs about mice
Subject: RE: mouse
wdyat12... so what did they make you do for your initiation that was such a howl ?

Before anyone vomits, the "culinary" scene is tasfully done, and it is a howl, but his explanation to the Inuit elder re the ingestion of mice for science is priceless. Altogether the best laugh I have ever had. You gotta see it.

On an off note, some may think the movie is a bit far fetched. However, the story is true, although certain "literary license" is taken, as in all "stories". Farley Mowat was not too far from my uncle when he spent his time with the wolves and my uncle tells a different story of the wolves and of Farley, but the movie is extremely entertaining and worth the price of admission.
