Dead River Rough Cut Director's Cut
Here for the first time in 30 years, filmmakers Richard Searls and Stu Silverstein present the film in its entirety as they originally intended it to be seen. Digitally re-mastered with almost 15 minutes of never-seen footage! Covering a period of four seasons in the backwoods of Maine, Dead River Rough Cut presents a revealing look at the lives of Walter Lane and Bob Wagg. They live and work in the woods, cutting trees and trapping beaver and accepting their isolation for the independence it affords them. They share their reflections about friendship, women, money, the lone life and death. Amusing, insightful, sometimes outrageous, their observations and stories pull few punches in this beautifully restored new version of a Maine classic which includes two new bonus segments, A Conversation with Bob Wagg and A Word with the Filmmakers.
