Friday is the movie/documentary night for 2022. Wife and I watched ‘The Rescue‘ today. It is one of the most riveting documentaries I watched since Icarus.
The movie had enthralling real footage from the rescue and some reenactments to fill the narrative gaps, but you won’t even recognize it until you watch the credits.
The best thing about the documentary was even when we knew the ending, we were on the edge of our seats throughout.
The one line that stuck with me from the movie was ‘Generosity is the beginning of everything’. I will be thinking about it this weekend and remember it for a long time.
Also, after Free Solo and The Rescue, Jimmy Chin is one of my favorite directors.
