In 1985, two young British guys, Joe Simpson and Simon Yates, traveled to a corner of Peru.
Their goal was to conquer a mountain that countless people have climbed but no one has ever climbed.
Siula Grande ----
up to 21,000ft, dangerous,
and their story has also become a legend in the history of mountaineering...
This documentary about climbers Joe Simpson and Simon Yates has a
very simple plot, He
climbed the mountain and reached the top smoothly.
An accident happened on the way back. Joe fell down a steep slope and unfortunately broke his right leg. Below him was an abyss, and he couldn't climb up.
Companion Simon had to hold him tightly with a lifeline, and descended with him in the blizzard,
who knew that the misfortune would not come singly, descending three thousand feet,
they encountered a cliff again, Joe was suspended in the air, and Simon, who did not know the details, could only Holding the rope tightly, but I don't know what's going on below,
but it's getting darker and darker, and danger is imminent.
If you can't go down the mountain as soon as possible, the two of you will face death in darkness and cold.
After a painful rescue With Wuwei's efforts,
simon finally cut the rope and came down from the mountain alone.
After Joe was abandoned, he immediately fell into the abyss. He wanted to give up, but with a strong will to survive, he crawled with his broken legs. Out of the abyss, after three days of hardships, just as Simon was about to evacuate
, he heard Joe's weak cry for help .
Believable and not monotonous, the picture is beautiful, and the music accompanies the development of the plot from beginning to end, and it is very exciting!
I don't know what to say about the thrillingness of this movie,
but then the rooster quickly downloaded the famous "Vertical Limit". Comparing the
two,
the latter is obviously a typical Hollywood commercial garbage, with grand scenes and plots. The rudeness
can't be compared with the former.
This is the charm of the documentary!
