In this episode, Dante Troina, Kody Malouf and I discuss Alaskan-themed movies, noting the romanticized vision many have of the state, and break down how authenticity plays a role in the perception of films set in Alaska. We review movies such as Mystery, Alaska; The Proposal, Into the Wild, Grizzly Man, Insomnia, 30 Days of Night, On Deadly Ground and more. Dante and Kody are life-long Alaskans and the host of The Cinema Cult Podcast.
