Episode 453 - Movies set/filmed in Alaska

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.  Check out the On Step Alaska website or subscribe on Substack for articles, features and all things Alaska.
