I am writing this review from memory, as I have not seen it since the 80s. It really felt like someone took two random scripts and combined them, decided to playing "eenie meanie miny mo" on picking the cast, instead of auditioning. Then gave it to some high school kid to direct. Some of the nature photography was pleasant, but in the Northwest that is a pretty easy thing to do.
The editing was terrible, the cinematography was mediocre, and the film was absent of any sort of talent. Yet, there was a general curiosity of how it would conclude. In the end, I felt robbed of 3 hours only to discover that the movie was only an hour and forty-one minutes.
