What is you favorite SURVIVAL movie?

Not really a movie, but I liked the Survivorman show on Discovery. It was much better than that stupid british/australian? guy that has a show. SurvivorMan, now he was the real deal.
 
The Postman and Jeremiah Johnson.
I can't remember where I read it, but when I was a kid I read an interview that was done with a famous mountain man. He was asked if he had ever been lost and his responce was "I have never been lost, but I have been temporarily disoriented. I was temporarily disoriented for seven years once." This really stuck with me as an example of the importance of perspective.
 
I know we are referring to wilderness survival type movies. But to me the most important ingredient to survival is the human will to survive and be free against all odds. So here are a few of my fav that demonstrate that -

Papillon - Steve McQueen/Dustin Hoffman
Alien - the first movie scare the bejeebers out of me!
Terminator 2 - who doesn't love the tough Sarah Connors who grooms his son to be the future resistance leader when shtf.
