About The Movie Lost on a Mountain
Donn was a strong-willed child who was determined to climb to the top of the mountain, despite his father saying the weather was not favorable. Donn was mad at his father, for never being there for him, due to traveling for work and was determined to show his dad that he was a man.
It was Donn's stubbornness and the survival skills that his father taught him, that allowed him to survive in the wilderness. It was his mother's love to find her child and many phone calls to find people who were willing to search the mountain. It was a community that came together to search for this 12-year-old boy.
Donn’s disappearance captured national headlines and sparked a massive search effort attracting hundreds of volunteers, including his own father.
Lost on a Mountain is produced by Sylvester Stallone and stars Luke David Blumm, Paul Sparks, Caitlin FitzGerald, Ethan Slater, and Griffin Wallace Henkel.

My Review of The Movie
This was an emotional and intense movie to watch. It reminded me of a current television show that my husband likes to watch called Survivor. Watching what Donn had to endure in the wilderness was tough to watch. I was amazed at his strength to not give up. The movie showed actual movie footage and photos from the real-life rescue. I loved that the movie also had plenty of scenes of a much older Donn reflecting on his experience as well as parents talking about their memories.
Watch this moving family film in theaters starting November 1st!
