Anything to Survive, also called Almost Too Late, is a 1990 Canadian-American coproduced disaster survival film directed by Zale Dalen and starring Robert Conrad, Matt LeBlanc and Emily Perkins. It is loosely based on the book Almost Too Late by Elmo Wortman, which is the true story of the Wortman family of Prince of Wales Island, Alaska.[2]
Plot
While sailing from Prince Rupert to their home in Ketchikan, Alaska, the Barton family (siblings Wendy, Krista and Billy and their father Eddie) lose their boat in a storm and get stranded on an island. The plot concerns the family going to extreme lengths to survive. Billy builds a raft and they attempt to sail to safety but they do not get far. Eddie and Billie head off to seek help while the two daughters try to keep warm under the remains of their boat's sail. Eddie and Billy find their way to a cabin on the mainland but cannot raise help. On day 23 they are able to return to the island and find that the girls are alive. Eddie and Wendy have frostbitten feet but all in the family survive and they are able to return to Ketchikan.
