127 Hours

Source

I watched 127 Hours tonight and I'm so glad I did.  I've never watched a movie that made me cringe, laugh, yearn and cry.  There was a lot of cringing by the way.  I'm pretty sure I covered my ears and closed my eyes for an entire scene.  I glance at Krusty and her scarf is covering her face.  I peak at the screen when it feels safe and nudge Krusty an it's okay to look now.  There was a point somewhere in the beginning where I thought, "wow.. this is going to be the rest of the movie, huh??"  And yep.  But it was so much more.  I don't cry happy tears.  It's usually the gut wrenching scenes that make me cry.  But I couldn't help it.  I wanted to cheer him on and clap and jump around saying, "Yay!"  

Plot aside, WOW!  Canyonlands FTW.  It was incredibly clear.  The views and shots were breathtaking.    I loved the way it was filmed.  Some scenes were a little like forgot the word for it but a little like claymation.  If anything, watch it for the cinemetography.  I don't even know if that's the right word but I'm going to use it.
