Buck realizes his potential.

The Call of the Wild 1972 PG 1h 40m “The Indians in this frozen land tell of a ghost dog which runs at the head of a wolf pack. – They are afraid. For it has more strength than any wolf, more cunning than any dog. No one knows from whence he came or why he stays.” It is summer in California, and Buck has it made as the family pet. That is, until it is discovered that he was worth his weight in gold or at least $75. He is sold to a broker who will take him to the K-l-o-n-d-i-k-e, where only dogs can do the work usually delegated to horses. There, Buck goes through many lives, trials, and tribulations, finally realizing his potential. On the way, he learns many concepts, from surprise to deceit and cunning; he also learns loyalty, devotion, and love. As he is growing, he feels the call of the wild. And so do we. Screen Play: Peter Welbeck Win Wells Peter Yeldham True to the book, this film holds nothing back. All the highlights of the original story are portrayed, and Charlton Heston has the main character, John Thornton, down to a tree. And unlike some Disney versions, we see Buck’s tribute and love for John.
