official description In 2003, a young American outdoorsman ventured into the arid desert and canyons around Moab, Utah on a weekend excursion. He was alone, ripping across the rocky, undulating landscape on his mountain bike with all the rambunctious exuberance of a young man in love with life and risk. Little did he know that his latest adventure was about to change into one of the most compelling stories of courage and survival.
In his follow-up to the immensely successful, Academy Award®-winning *Slumdog Millionaire*, Danny Boyle has turned to the true story of Aron Ralston, who found himself fighting for his life after his right hand was crushed and trapped by a boulder in a freak accident. Despite his Herculean attempts to move the rock, Aron’s luck seemed to have run out. How does one make a film about a man stuck in one place, struggling to avoid the inevitable? In what is essentially a one-man show – and James Franco is extraordinary in his portrayal of the famed adventurer – Boyle has stretched his extraordinary talents to their fullest. Initially, Aron is almost bemused by his fate, and draws on all his climbing skills to set up a system of pulleys using his one good hand. As every attempt to move the boulder fails, and as his water supply starts to run dry, Aron drifts into reveries of his past and fantasies of possible escapes. He records his thoughts with the camcorder he brought with him. Relying on his wits and facing certain death, he is finally forced to the conclusion that there is only one way out. *Full of visual invention that exhibits a kinetic sense of cinema, complemented by a superb score from **Slumdog **collaborator A.R. Rahman, Boyle has followed up one great success with another.* Piers Handling http://tiff.net/filmsandschedules/tiff/2010/127hours More links on this > http://127-hours.the-movie-trailer.com/ http://www.collider.com/2010/08/16/127-hours-danny-boyle-teaser-trailer-description/ http://www.heyuguys.co.uk/2010/08/06/first-look-at-danny-boyles-127-hours/ Dont miss Danny boyle's Interview there :-) -- *- Regards ~ ~ A.R.Rajib ~ ~*
