SPECIAL EDITION | Redneck doppelgangers, getting lost on a mountain in Maine & how moving to S.D. helped shape a Hollywood movie director
When 12-year-old Donn Fendler found himself lost for eight days on a mountain in Maine, his unlikely survival took resilience, smarts and an ability to adapt.Nearly nine decades later, that story is being told on silver screens across the country, and in South Dakota. Lost on a Mountain in Maine will debut in at least 16 theaters this week.But the Sylvester Stallone-produced, coming-of-age survival film that doubles as a father-son tearjerker isn’t why it’s grabbing headlines in the Mount Rushmore State. Rather, the journey of director Andrew Kightlinger and the influence that his South Dakota roots have on the 38-year-old’s breakthrough movie is.It’s a story that crosses oceans and deserts, and oddly enough finds its crux in South Dakota. It’s an adventure story where Kightlinger is the leading man.HERE’S THE FULL DAKOTA SCOUT STORY ABOUT ANDREW AND LOST ON A MOUNTAIN IN MAINE: This is a public episode.
