There’s Pale Rider, the Eiger Sanction, When Trumpets Fade, Mystery Alaska, Mighty Ducks, Slapshot, Quintet, Runaway Train, Bergman’s The Touch, w/Elliot Gould, also the unique decapitation in Silent Partners, Cusick’s Better Off Dead and The Sure Thing, equal to Ice Harvest…HBO’s Gulag, Starting Over, Julia, Bad Santa, The Mountain w/ Spencer T and RJ, Bond used the winter scenes frequently, the least notable Roger Moore and Lynn-Holly Johnson in For Your Eyes Only…If I gave it more than forty-nine seconds, I’m sure I could come up with forty-nine more reasons…
