patrick,

Interesting comment, as I think Annaud's "The Name of the Rose" and later "Seven Years in Tibet" were atmospheric but missed opportunities, but "Quest for Fire" does evoke use that prehistoric atmosphere in a way that has never been done before or since and not in a forced or contrived way.

Not even "1,000,000 Years B.C." with Raquel Welch, "Cave Girl," or the Ape bone throwing scenes in "2001" measures up!

This must have required astounding time to research and prepare.

And very memorable visually. When watching again, many scenes- being treed by lions, the quicksand, and others- were so familiar 20 years later.


Cheers,

Bambi B
