Free Solo
An incredible movie about the world's first free climb of El Capitan in Yosemite.
It really does justice to capturing the determination, emotion, persistence, obstacles, and extremes of human temperament needed to achieve a pinnacle of human achievement of a world first.
When he is 3 hours into the climb, every single hand-hold and foot-grip memorized on the entire climb, and he's contorting his body and reaching for the most difficult reach of the climb, the movie has informed you of everything that goes into that moment and you really feel the tension and gripping emotion of it.
Cliff-hanger doesn't come close to describing it.
This interview covers many facets of the film.
