ANTHONY HOPKINS plays Charles Morse, a multimillionaire tycoon. He's married to a sexy, young "trophy" wife, a professional model appropriately played by Elle Macpherson.
Morse and his wife combine business and pleasure by taking a trip into the great north woods of Canada. For the wife, it'll be a chance for a fashion shoot in an exotic location -- that's why she brings along a magazine camera crew. For Charles, it's a chance to explore the alien concept of "roughing it".
Alec Baldwin plays Robert Green, the fashion photographer in charge of the fashion shoot. It's obvious he also lusts after Charles' wife, and Charles begins to suspect they may already be having an affair.
However, after leaving the others at the base camp, Charles and Robert take a plane ride to scout locations -- and end up crashed on a remote mountain side, miles and miles from civilization or help.
Beset with conflicting emotions, these two guys who would rather kill each other are forced to join together to survive the elements. As if the freezing weather and lack of food aren't enough, there's also a large and deadly bear on their trail, and the men are armed with nothing but their hands, a pocket knife and their wits.
