Genre: Adventure Biography Drama
Direction: Danny Boyle
Lead: James Franco
A very profound movie with a beautiful ending.
This movie is a biography of Aaron Ralston, the famous rock climber and mountaineer. But it depicts all our lives. It's a wonderful metaphor for solitude and for the importance of what life means at an individual level. It is embedded with all values of life -friends, family, love, and the importance of human contact in life. And you never understand their significance until something disastrous happens to you. It is only then that you realize how much you've lost during all this time.
Danny Boyle has done a superb job in depicting the cathartic life-or-death experience. And James Franco also has done an outstanding performance. A huge leap from Spiderman's Harry Osborn to this level of brilliant acting. This movie will really make you "feel" life.
The movie is short. Watch it alone in one shot.
