One person, the elements, and the will to get home.
two trucks, nitroglycerin, unbearable
the river, and what happens on it
released opposite *Star Wars* and destroyed; a great film
the Andes crash, the first time
the most beloved film on earth, by most measures
three hours, and it earns the sentiment
an hour of one man and a volleyball
the wave, and an ending studios wouldn't allow now
reenactment documentary, unbearably tense
Penn's best direction
a single location, and Boyle's best editing
95 minutes inside a coffin
the last great argument for 3D
sold as a wolf-punching film; it's about dying
the 2004 tsunami, and Watts
one actor, almost no dialogue
"I'm the captain now," and the last ten minutes
the 1996 disaster, told without heroics
Larson, and the first hour's claustrophobia
the natural-light shoot, and the bear
the Andes crash, finally done right
