The Donner Party - 1992 - 8/10
Everyone has their holiday favorites.
The Donner Party documentary is the American Dream, turned upside down into nightmare.
Back in 1846, a portion of the covered wagons rolling west to California, left the main body to take a "shortcut."
Hastings Cutoff was longer, much more difficult, and devoured precious time. By the time wagons reached the Sierra Mountains, the Donner group was trapped near Truckee. They had to winter there without food or supplies. Days turned into weeks, then into months. For food, they turned to companions. The other white meat.
Completely true story.
Most females I know go haywire when they hear guys use the shortcut phrase. Maybe it's in their DNA.
