A la caza de C. Dallas

I saw this movie about ten years ago on TV and I was very excited as I was and still am a huge Brent Spiner fan. Overall the film is a little unmemorable.

You do feel for the main character who just wants to be left alone to live in the wild and who gets himself in terrible trouble with the law. Brent plays Bob, a friend who tries to help Claude out.

Overall, I have it on tape and would only watch it again to see Brent Spiners scenes.

There were some recognizable faces in the cast, and it does pass for a good true story, I like stories based on reality.

Matt Salinger in a very understated performance, plays Claude Dallas, self proclaimed minimalist, who also happens to be a cold blooded killer. It's a fascinating conflict of beliefs regarding poaching that sets the story in motion. Is Claude Dallas simply defending his God given right to live off the land, by breaking the law with his out of season hunting? Confronted by two Idaho Game Wardens, Dallas, in what he believes is righteous anger, kills to protect his beliefs. The manhunt that follows is spearheaded by Rip Torn playing the local sheriff. His relentless pursuit is not an easy one however, because of the many sympathizers who aid Dallas along the way. This is an excellent, much overlooked, TV movie. - MERK
