I worked at the Minntac mine in the late 1970s into the 1980s. I got hired right after the big strike in 1977. The movie
was very inspiring to my friends. I just wish it had more about what was happening on the Range and in the mines at the time
-- the strike, the women's committees that were set up in the different union locals (starting with Mine -- USWA Local 1938),
the movement for affirmative action and the Equal Rights Amendment, etc. It would have been a better movie.

LOVE YOUR SITE..DON'T KNOW HOW I CAME UPON IT....BY
MISTAKE REALLY...I HAD HOPED THAT THE MOVIE NORTH COUNTRY WOULD DO WELL AT THE BOX OFFICE. I AM VERY DISSAPOINTED THAT IT
IS NOT. IHAVE READ THE BOOK AND HAVE SEEN THE MOVIE 3 TIMES. I AM FROM MINNESOTA ALSO...I TRULY HAD HOPED IT WOULD DO WELL.
HOPEFULLY AT LEAST AROUND OSCAR TIME IT WILL BE NOMINATED...I AM X'ING MY FINGERS. WHEN I GO SEE THE MOVIE AGAIN - WILL REMEMBER
TO LOOK FOR YOU.

I had the privilege of attending an advance screening of NORTH COUNTRY with a very interesting Q&A afterward with Charlize
Theron and director Niki Caro.

Was an extra at the courthouse in Albuquerque. Woody H. was hilarious on occasion. Even as an extra, the scene was intense
to watch.
