Movie Description

Walt Disney Productions 1972 animal/adventure drama, Run, Cougar, Run harkens back to the classic "nature" film which Disney made famous. Directed by Jerome Courtland and adapted from Robert William Murphy's The Mountain Lion, Run, Cougar, Run stars Stuart Whitman, Frank Aletter and Alfonso Arau.

Utah's redrock mesa region is the setting for a cave-dwelling cougar family. Tragedy strikes when the male cougar is shot by a hunter, leaving Seeta, the mother, to provide for and raise her three cubs. These magnificent animals are captured splendidly as they experience growing up and learning to survive in an often harsh and dangerous environment.

Contrary to accepted belief, Seeta encounters and is befriended by a gentle sheepherder (Arau), debunking the myth that cougars and humans can't co-exist. However, when the hunter returns, intent on tracking down the remainder of the family, Seeta and the shepherd's relationship is tested mightily.

Beautifully filmed and filled with spectacular scenery, Run, Cougar, Run is suitable for all ages.
