True Heart is a 1999 American adventure film, starring Kirsten Dunst and Zachery Ty Bryan.
It tells the story of a brother and sister who survive a plane crash that strands them in the Canadian Wilderness. They are rescued by a local Native American who claims there are 'bad people' in the forest and tells them they must get away. This leads them on a trip through the wilderness away from poachers to find their parents.
In an astronomical error the Native American draws a star map with the end stars of the handle of the Big Dipper (he calls it the Big Bear) pointing to the North Star at the end of the handle of the Little Dipper (he calls it the Little Bear). In fact the stars on the far side of the bowl of the Big Dipper are the pointers to the North Star.
DVD & Movie Guide gave the movie three-and-a-half stars, saying that it was "perfect for family viewing".
Famous quotes containing the words true and/or heart:
“This we take it is the grand characteristic of our age. By our skill in Mechanism, it has come to pass, that in the management of external things we excel all other ages; while in whatever respects the pure moral nature, in true dignity of soul and character, we are perhaps inferior to most civilised ages.”
—Thomas Carlyle (1795–1881)
“No man can tell but he that loves his children, how many delicious accents make a man’s heart dance in the pretty conversation of those dear pledges; their childishness, their stammering, their little angers, their innocence, their imperfections, their necessities, are so many little emanations of joy and comfort to him that delights in their persons and society.”
—Jeremy Taylor (1613–1667)
