127 Hours update

Very good, very, very good. The whole idea of Danny Boyle specializing in portraying "sharp" pain is taken to extreme (see last post), interestingly through the soundtrack. Also the theme of fate is further explored, definitely logical fit with Slumdog Millionaire. Visually stunning in scenery and the use of slit screens. In fact the split screen was stylistically reminiscent of Kill Bill or Charlie's Angels but so much better. Definitely not boring, which a cinematographic documentary of being trapped by a rock for 127 hours could be suspect of. A definite tear jerker as well.
