Shamelessly copied from what I said on UKC.
So the trailer for Alistair Lee's new film is out. Who can fail to be incredibly psyched up for this?! It looks amazing.
I was chatting to Alistair about the film and we both agree that it is destined to be great and to appeal to all climbers climbing at all grades. There are plenty who cant identify with a climber who is headpointing in a completely calm state of mind but who can fail to recognise the look of sheer terrified relief on Leo's face as he tops out a gritstone epic and emphasize with him - we've all been there! The film also brings a new level of uncertainty in that as the climbers are onsighting, probably on previously climbed routes for the most part, their ascents will most likely not have hit the headlines and the outcome will be unknown. Will they make the slap? Will they fall? Will the gear rip?
OOOOOO! I cant wait!
