Interview with director Joe Carnahan and actor Frank Grillo from "The Grey" starring Liam Neeson.

Liam Neeson stars as John Ottway, a hired gun whose prey are wolves who threaten the lives of oil riggers on the job. This is how the film opens, with Ottway's site set on a lurking wolf.

Within the first few scenes, I knew this film was going to evoke an array of emotions; how could it not be when the characters are battling the rigid cold, mortal injuries, and being hunted by territorial wolves.

But, the plot doesn't only deal with men trying to navigate themselves through treachurous weather. Their is an underlying combatant called "life" and the film addresses issues that will hit close to home for most, if not every viewer -- issues that at one point in time affects us all including good vs. evil, mortality, even faith. A poem recited by Neeson's character serves as an eerie anthem to these struggles:

"Once more into the fray. Into the last good fight I'll ever know. Live and die this day. Live and die this day."

  • This is the poem of the ultimate warrior who knows that this will be the last day, the day of life and death. This is the poem of courage.

  • One of the best movies in a long time.

  • @kcraven25 probably had it read to the writer and misunderstood the words.

  • @badmanslayer04 I actually thought it was robert downey jr Lol.

  • @kcraven25 because he dies in the movie at the end with the wolf and if they didn't say or it would have gave away the ending, i'm just guessing

  • I wish it meant, die but dont die without a fight.

  • Idnt know if anyone else notice but the clip after the credits is actually him laying ontop of the alpha wolf

  • @dimonemon
