Framed - daily film guessing game

stdP said:
Understandable. Whilst I like and watch many documentaries, and have found plenty of "classic exploration" docos thoroughly engrossing, but I've tried to watch several about various feats of modern exploration and... humourless high-tech trousers is a surprisingly good summation of them all. Meh. Don't think it's summat I'd be drawn to but interested to see what others like OU saw in it.

I have no interest in climbing and agree how reckless they are but I enjoy watching documentaries about subjects
I have no interest in. Asif Kapadia is great at this - I have no interest in motorsports (Senna), football (Diego Maradona) or Amy Winehouse (Amy) but nevertheless find his docs fascinating. The Alex Hornold chap is an interesting personality - ASD, and with no apparent regard for his girlfriend and family’s concerns for his safety. And the climbing sequences are nail-biting and suspenseful as he really does risk death at every move - one false move and it’s a guaranteed death. When I saw it there were lots of climbing nerds in the audience chatting about techniques n shit and I had to tell them to shut the fuck up several times as I was entranced. There are also lots of beautiful shots of Yosemite which seems like an idyllic paradise stuffed to the gills with wild animals at every turn. [\iSPOILER]

I "researched it" - I feel dirty. By using "research" I could / should've got it in one. "Research" is definitely cheating no matter how you slice it

100% this - despite my vertigo and acrophobia, or perhaps because of it, I find documentaries about it absolutely enthralling. I often find myself thinking "you absolute twat" about some of the participants who clearly have more money than sense (especially when it comes to the wealthy spending 10s of thousands on mountaineering tourism type thing), often with little regard for the safety of themselves or others. Nevertheless there are some great documentaries about the subject. I particularly recommend to everyone who isn't into this sort of film on the basis of "wealthy twunts" watches "Sherpa" which is utterly fantastic and certainly gives the other side of the story wrt mountaineering tourism industry.
 
Another wash. Have heard of it, but never seen it. Know some of the actors in it from association, but didn't see them in any of the pictures. In retrospect recognised Wossface Abraham in frame 5.
 
Got it in one today as DaveCinzano predicted. This film's stuck in my head since I first saw it and despite the first image being pretty incoherent, the texture of Saris' ship was unmistakeable. Pretty much all of the frames are giveaways here if you've seen it.
