Because of the author's preference for mountains, the movies I specifically selected are all related to mountains. Towering snow-capped mountains, slashed cliffs, looking up at the boundless sky, bowing down is the abyss of Miao Miao's dizziness, in front of him is the embrace of a steady mountain, and behind him is nothing but nothing. So far, the only sport that I resemble outdoor rock climbing is that the Harrier in Huashan turned over and moved forward with a heavy body alone, as if to go to a gambling appointment that traveled through time and space. There is neither fear nor surprise in the process of climbing. When I think about it carefully, the only thought at that time is the search for a foothold under my feet. People at the chess pavilion can't see the way they come. The peaks are like a group of immortals chatting in the wind. I suddenly came in, but immediately knew that I was leaving. When sitting on the long sky plank road, I had a very strange idea in my mind. If I sleep on this mountain forever, it may be worthwhile to be able to transform into a small land fairy after thousands of years.
How can the natural magnificence and majesty of the truth be easily broken by tourists sitting or standing comfortably? The ridicule or angry emotions of a lonely mountain are not easily overcome by the strength of the individual. Only those with the most similar temperament to the mountain are qualified to board. To return to the world, they must have the indifferent and independent indifferent, but also have the courage to let go, and slowly learn to tolerate and taste everything in the process of climbing, and in the end it is the indomitability of mankind to conquer another dangerous peak. It is no longer important that it is another dangerous peak to allow a part of oneself to return to the dust.
Probably all climbing will eventually evolve into the original explosive force of saving people and self-help. We look forward to the most beautiful scenery in the world, and hope that our hearts can always remain clear in a world full of material desires, and we expect that what we do is not the recognition in the eyes of others, but the meaning of our own recognition.
With a backpack on your back, come on a trip that says you become a savage. Standing at the foot of the mountain, you will wonder who can reach the top of the mountain; when you reach the top of the mountain and look down, you will forget everything.
"Vertical Limit" (2000)
Recommendation: ★★★ ☆☆
climb mountains: K2 peak, the world's second highest peak
membership Mountains: Karakoram
Shooting Location: New Zealand Cook Mountain
life-saving tips: knock out Morse code with a walkie-talkie
wonderful Highlights: How sour it is to climb the snow-capped mountains with nitroglycerin that will explode with a slight vibration. With the
help of dazzling advanced technology, climbing this snow-capped mountain, which is said to be more difficult than Mount Everest, is more modern and more streamlined, and there are more people. Relying on machinery and drugs to maintain courage and will, nevertheless, this film still opened the audience's eyes with wonderful and unusual visual effects. In fact, the snow-capped mountains that seem to be motionless are in danger of collapsing and breaking. Moments of crisis test the courage of climbers, and in the avalanche of anger, people completely return to baby-like prayer.
This is a Hollywood movie that we are familiar with. The plot setting is linked from the beginning to the end. The reasonable conflict of human nature under the crisis. People gain tolerance and friendship in helping each other. There is always a heroine who shines with a powerful halo of the protagonist. To the destination, with the slow-moving tracks of the 1960s, there seems to be no reason not to watch it cool off on weekends. The act of suicide in order to save people in the film is actually too idealistic, so the identity of the two men who cut the rope is very special.
This is a peerless snow scene to be seen together.
"North Wall" (2008)
recommendation index: ★★★★★
Climbing the mountain peak: the north wall of the Eiger, the first day in Europe, the dangerous
mountain range: the Alps
Filming location: Rivera, Switzerland. Part of the content was filmed at the location of the incident.
Life-saving skills: Don’t let yourself go.
Highlights: The rescue team is here, but the rope is not long enough. The
film background takes place on the eve of the 1936 Berlin Olympics. Two Germans A German mountaineer and two Austrian mountaineers climbed the north face of the Eiger at the same time. Due to the steep and rugged slope of the slope, many mountaineers lost their lives here. Since ancient times, it has been said to be a "cannibal slope". It is adapted from the most famous tragedy on the North Wall. When Toni Kurz and his companions climbed, their companions fell off the cliff one after another, and he hung on the cliff overnight, and finally died of exhaustion when the rescue team arrived the next day.
The difficult environment and skillful Z-climbing is already astounding, and the most exciting is the comparison of the living environment of a large number of climbers on the mountain and the people watching down the mountain, the choice when the dream of climbing to the top is contrary to saving lives, and the hopelessness of the climber to be rescued The pain of waiting for death. This film uses cold snow and dark rocks to restore the cruelty of the cliff, and the howling wind and the monotonous tinkling sound of rock nails are replaced by a maddening BGM. This is an elegy about the losers, and a condolences to all brave men who try to surpass the limits of mankind and fight for themselves. The mountaineering equipment of the last century now looks extremely simple, and the makeup is also the purple and black horror of the skin in the cold. This time, the goodness of humans has not been able to defeat the evil of nature.
Don't be sorry, You're home.
"Eight thousand meters Dead Man Walking (K2)" (1991)
Recommendation: ★★★ ☆☆
climb mountains: K2 peak, the world's second highest peak
membership Mountains: Karakoram
taken place: the plot background in New Zealand Cook Mountain
life-saving skills :Choose the person you trust the most to be your companion.
Wonderful feature: The person who is waiting for the dead finds that the friend returns to save himself, which is simply a routine of romance novels.
The first half of the film described in more detail the climber’s preparation and life before deciding to climb K2, doing work that he loves or hates, having the same troubles like every ordinary person we are familiar with, and burning in his heart like most people. A cluster of small flames, the difference is that they are willing to extinguish the fire. What the professor said after breaking his leg was really touching. Some people were born lucky, and he had to give up everything to get what he wanted. The aura of the victor will not be as dazzling as we think, there will be dirt and damage on it.
The friction that occurred when hiring local people at the foot of the mountain as a porter to carry luggage deeply makes people feel the difference between developed countries and backward countries: the former can already give citizens the courage and channels to realize their dreams, while the latter has to play for the livelihood of a family of several Tragic adventure; however, the former's bones are mostly buried on the snow-capped mountains, while the latter is still hoping for tomorrow in his wife's fragrance.
I also want to find a little noble feeling in my humble life.
"168 Hours of Ice Peak " (2003)
Recommended index: ★★★★★
Climbing the mountain: Siula Grande, so far only the two protagonists of the film have successfully climbed to the top.
Affiliated mountain range: Andes
Filming location: Siula Grande and Alps
Life-saving skills: set Goals that can be accomplished in 20 minutes one by one and complete the
highlights: the hoarse "Simon" in the dark of despair.
A film adapted from real mountaineering events has completed a mountaineering documentary with wonderful editing and moving professionalism. This feat interspersed the interviews with Joe Simpson and Simon in the harsh mountaineering activities. Although we knew the end from the beginning, we were still shocked by the tenacity and calmness of Joe climbing three thousand feet alone after breaking his leg. The film uses a large number of perspectives to reflect the insignificance of the individual and the grandeur of the mountain, making people dare not forget awe in the beautiful scenery. After enduring the severe pain of broken leg, the crisis of water and food shortage, the dilemma of glacial collapse, and the fatal exhaustion, Joe can actually climb back to the camp with a trace of clarity and call his teammates. He is definitely a well-deserved model of self-help for climbers.
The abandoned loneliness and fear, as well as the will to survive in the dark, is indescribable in any language, and what makes us even more touched is that Joe did not blame Simon for cutting the rope to save himself, or even rushing to justify it. Help him return to society. The cruel snow mountain gave him the cruelest lesson but enriched a generous and brave heart. The ending given in the movie is that he can continue to climb the mountain, and online materials say that he can never climb the mountain. No matter which is the truth, he is an unchanging legend in the history of mountaineering.

"127 Hours" (2010)
: ★★★★★
Expedition Location: Blue John Canyon
Location: Colorado Grand Canyon
Filming Location : Studio
life-saving skills: if necessary, self-dismemberment.
Highlights: The film festival publicized the scene of self-amputation and scared two audiences
. Alan Roston, who has climbed 58 peaks, can be said to be a model in the history of mountaineers’ self-help. The arm stuck between the rocks and was trapped in the canyon due to lack of water and food for 5 days. After 5 days, he broke his arm, climbed 65 feet to the bottom of the valley, walked 8 kilometers and was rescued. The following year, an American mountaineering man unfortunately broke his leg and was rescued after four days of crawling in the Utah desert with the inspiration of this film. This film does not have the excitement of mountaineering, nor the thrill of going down the rugged mountain. Some are just the dilemma that all mountaineering enthusiasts will encounter-how to save themselves in extreme danger.
Loneliness, selfishness, willfulness, loss, values, etc. actually stage a bloody "Fatal ID" deep in our hearts all the time, but we can't see through each other, only introspect when the crisis comes. Pain is for us to learn to be grateful and strong to face it, not to avoid it cowardly. Similarly, trying to travel the world is not a dream, learning cultural knowledge is the key, otherwise the crisis will come and you will not even have the opportunity to try.
Pseudo-documentary-style shooting adds a bit of mystery to this biographical movie. Those crazy but vivid mountaineers spend 127 hours in their lives that are longer than many people’s centuries. The male protagonist truly portrays an endangered life. The emotions and psychological activities of the dead can also be felt outside the lens of this deep sense of awe for life. People who explore nature with life are not immature people, nor are they irresponsible people who don't cherish life. They just choose to be responsible for themselves first.
Being born in the world, even if we are close to the suffering destined for every minute of our lives, we have to face the difficulties.
"Xianfeng" (2007)
Recommendation: ★★★★ ☆
Adventure Location: Snow
membership Location: Alaska
shooting mode: shoot the helicopter
life-saving techniques: big bang, and then to decline, and thrice
Festival Highlights: Downhill skiing skills, and so extreme
alpine Skiing was once considered a suicidal sport. It was once banned in the United States, but France strongly recommends it because people feel that "only a fool can make themselves fall", the desire to conquer nature and self, and the gains from extreme sports A sense of accomplishment allows people to complete seemingly impossible feats. The challenge from 35°, to 45°, to 55° is the severity of death, and the questions raised by skiers are exciting. Where: Compared with dying from a mountain climbing and dying in a car accident, which way of death do you prefer?
In this film, several good downhill players described their stimulating and crazy life, and they also mentioned the idea of living the life of ordinary people. However, once people have stimulated their own physical instincts, it is difficult to look at them anymore. In nothing. People are destined for a lifetime from the moment they reach the top of the mountain, only their posture is most like flying.
The snow-capped mountains of Zhuangluan are even more shining with traces of human touch.
"Lonely Cliff" (2010)
recommendation index: ★★★★☆
Explore location: Zion National Park "Moonlight Arch" (370 meters) and Yosemite National Park Half Dome "Northwest Wall Conventional Route"
Affiliation: Utah, USA
Filming location: Live tracking and
life-saving skills: Enough confidence.
Highlights: Freehand climbing
Alex Honnold, a boy with cute big eyes and a shy smile, who could think of him He is the world’s top master of Free solo, the deadliest extreme sport in the world. Without any safety measures such as ropes and insurance buckles, he can use a bag of magnesium powder for half-day rock climbing to create a unique miracle in the world. Maybe some people live to create legends, they will also have ordinary people's doubts and fears, but strong willpower can always make them easy to win the championship.
To a large extent, he can achieve such a great achievement is also due to his enlightened parents. Although they are not happy with his son's choice, they are still gratified that he has found his goal in life. Every second on the cliff will be a year of torment for them, and they can only make their son come back without pressure if they smile to the maximum. Such parents are more admirable than the master climber.
Is there any movie that can make people feel soft on the soles of the feet within 20 minutes, only extreme rock climbing.
"Into the Thin Air Zone" (1997)
Recommended index: ★★★☆☆ Mountain
climbing peak: Mount Everest
Affiliated mountain range: Himalayas
Filming location: Unknown
life-saving technique: You must turn around at 2pm and return home.
Highlights: Frozen in the snow The stiff living dead suddenly
took a breath and woke up and walked back to the camp. The original film is the bible in the heart of the climber. Based on the personal experience of the accompanying reporter, he wrote the extremely tragic history of climbing Everest and proved that the cruelty of the mountain top is not an ambition. Aspirations, a one-time payment of 65,000 US dollars, and professional guides can conquer it. When we reach the death zone above 8,000 meters above sea level, we are all equal, and all of us are shrouded in the stern god of death. The death rate on Mount Everest is one-ninth, while the death rate on the lower Mount Everest is one-fourth. Either sit quietly on the roof of the world and be a beautiful man forever, or grit your teeth and be determined to bring back a legend.
The film does not involve climbing skills or dangerous terrain, but focuses on the physical and mental pain of climbers along the way, and thus admires the heroes who dare to climb more than 8,000 meters without oxygen. The towering snow-capped mountains do not allow people to take a little contempt. It is immortal and cannot be conquered by one person forever. Human beings can only be children forever.
At an altitude of more than 8,000 meters, people are completely overwhelmed and forget the team itself.
"Touching the Top of the World" (2006)
recommendation index: ★★★☆☆ Mountain
climbing: Mount Everest
Affiliated mountain range: Himalayas
Location: Unknown
Life-saving skills: Teamwork is the key
Highlights: The only blind person in the world climbs to the top of the pearl The
film itself does not have much brilliance. As a biographical film, it records the summit myth of Eric, the only blind American who successfully climbed Mount Everest. It will be difficult and difficult to climb Mount Everest. The story of Rick’s life is interspersed with flashbacks and presented to the audience, which can be said to be a bowl of fragrant, sweet and greasy chicken soup. The summit team composed of 19 people had no casualties and successfully protected the blind teammates to the summit. It cannot be said that it is a good time, place and people. The United States is indeed a dream-making country, and its citizens dare to dream the biggest dream.
When one wants to accomplish something that is impossible for everyone, encouragement from relatives is the best comfort. Wanting to find a little meaning in life in this ordinary life is not just meddling with food, but to discover a more complete self. The blind man created not only the legend of the disabled, but also the legend of the indomitable will of the entire mankind. Of course, the more important thing is from his loyal and reliable team, we have to say that the god of luck has indeed enveloped him.
"I don't care what others say, I say you can do it, you can do it."
"Alps: Giants of Nature" (2007)
Recommended index: ★★★☆☆
Climbing the mountain: the north face of the Eiger, the first day in Europe Risky
mountain range: Alps
Filming location: IMAX film company on-site shooting.
Life-saving skills: good teamwork and common heart.
Highlights: son
climbed the peak from the place where his father fell from the cliff 40 years later, the father of American mountaineer and writer John 40 years ago Unfortunately, he fell off a cliff while creating a new route to climb the north wall of the Eiger. Forty years later, in order to commemorate his father's re-climbing the old road, his son finally reached the summit with a couple of teammates. The shadow of childhood and many years of heart knot finally opened, and the vastness and magnificence of the Alps brought his heart closer to his wife and daughter. He understands and releases himself during the climbing process, and also appreciates the preciousness of family and love during the climbing process.
A happy family is composed of independent and complete individuals. Everyone is a giant peak. With the continuous changes of external factors, it also gains more respect and understanding. My own progress has also changed the family's knowledge. With such a long life, we cannot reach the top from the beginning, but people with perseverance can always see the most different scenery. Because it is a documentary, a lot of common sense about the formation of the Alps is interspersed in the film. The camera slowly zoomed out, making the people who were climbing hard gradually disappear into the mountains, which is even more awe-inspiring.
Only by being in this mountain.
