I saw the movie '8 below' today. It had spectacular scenes from the Antarctica, and a story based on some true life events. I really enjoyed it. The dogs were great. Whether you love dogs or not, it will warm your heart.

Highly recommended.

I hate to tell you this but the movie was filmed in Smithers, British Columbia - subbing for the Antartica. Pretty cool, eh?

three of the dogs that played in the movie were from Soldotna, Alaska...

which is like 30 minutes from where I grew up and about 2.5 hours away from where I am now... their high school sports program sucks (the football coach they had for years loved to cheat, and a lot of refs come from Soldotna so...) and they claim Kenai as a subdivision of Soldotna even though we were established long before they were...

but it's still cool lol

Oh No! I thought I had seen Antarctica on the screen :lol: (they did show some penguins at the beginning).

'March of the Penguins' however was indeed filmed in Antarctica.
