How does the Marlboro Man spend his time when he can no longer do cigarette ads? He roams the Wyoming chaparral with a herd of mule deer who’ve adopted him as a family member.
This PBS Nature documentary with the totally forgettable name is an unforgettable watching experience. Naturalist Joe Hutto really is your classic Hollywood cowpoke. He squints, he carries a lever-action 30-30, he wears a beautifully styled denim shirt, he sheds a reluctant tear — but not before lowering his head modestly into the shadows.
Joking aside, he’s a great on-camera presence, and his intimate and emotional connection with some local mule deer is pure magic.
