Time spent watching films, even crappy ones, is time well-spent.

Touching the Void (2004)

Absorbing documentary recounting the amazing story of the struggle to survive after a mountaineering accident. I generally have no pity for those who climb as I view them as thrill-seekers without enough respect for unforgiving nature. This, however, was a movie that sucked me in. The honesty of it simply blew me away. I just can't believe that these guys still climb. Idiots.

B+
