CineTV Contest - Your Favorite Documentary: Free Solo [Eng/Esp]@repayme45681544d

Although i am not really a fan of documentary, but they is one of it that took all of me away and which is no other documentary than the "free solo" I must say that, I was greatly impressed seeing how a young man could show much love for climbing and not minding if the world identify and realized his potential but always taking on climbing mountains, which is what he loves the most.

According to him, "climbing makes him happy and which is what he values the most in life.

His name was Marc-André Leclerc, he love to climb and equally says, he lived his life for climbing and when he met Harrington his match partner, his life was more than complete, their life was more good as they could shared everything in common and also understand themselves.

Harrington was also into climbing, the free solo mountains climbing didn't end well as it accompanied some tragedy moment with it, who would have said, it all ended well, to cried is what we could say and to put it short.

Harrington could hardly lived with her life, each time she thinks of Leclerc her late partner, it was just like a night mare which she was still finding it difficult to believe, Leclerc felt from up high while climbing, he was so determine and deciding not to climb with rope, he was bare footed and nothing else was attached.

Leclerc lived a life of a hero who wouldn't acknowledge him as such, he always went extra miles in doing something which Humans can hardly comprehend, men like him make me to see life as something just like a record.

watching through this documentary make me to asked this question, "how would you be remembered when you are no more on planet earth"?

As some people really said that they would want their name to live longer here on planet earth as far as life exist but some people tends to be silent about this topic, to get a great documentary full of inspirations, the free solo would be the one you should look out for, to thrilled your day and make you say wow!

Thank you for reading to the end.

Aunque no soy muy fan de los documentales, pero es uno de esos que me arrebató todo y que no es otro documental que el "solo libre" debo decir que me impresionó mucho ver como un joven podía mostrar mucho amor por la escalada y sin importarle si el mundo identifica y se dio cuenta de su potencial, pero siempre se dedica a escalar montañas, que es lo que más le gusta.

Según él, “la escalada le hace feliz y que es lo que más valora en la vida.

Su nombre era Marc-André Leclerc, le encantaba escalar e igualmente dice, vivía su vida para escalar y cuando conoció a Harrington, su compañero de partido, su vida era más que completa, su vida era más buena ya que podían compartir todo en común. y también comprenderse a sí mismos.

A Harrington también le gustaba escalar, la escalada libre en solitario no terminó bien ya que acompañó algún momento trágico, quién lo diría, todo terminó bien, llorar es lo que podríamos decir y para resumir.

Harrington apenas podía vivir con su vida, cada vez que pensaba en Leclerc, su difunto compañero, era como una pesadilla que todavía le resultaba difícil de creer, Leclerc se sentía desde lo alto mientras escalaba, estaba tan determinado y decidiendo no para subir con cuerda, iba descalzo y no llevaba nada más atado.

Leclerc vivió una vida de héroe que no lo reconocería como tal, siempre hizo un esfuerzo adicional para hacer algo que los humanos apenas pueden comprender, los hombres como él me hacen ver la vida como algo así como un récord.

ver este documental me hace hacer esta pregunta, "¿cómo serás recordado cuando ya no estés en el planeta tierra"?

Como algunas personas realmente dijeron que querrían que su nombre viviera más tiempo aquí en el planeta tierra en la medida en que exista vida, pero algunas personas tienden a guardar silencio sobre este tema, para obtener un gran documental lleno de inspiraciones, el solo gratis sería el que debes buscar, para alegrar tu día y hacerte decir ¡guau!

Gracias por leer hasta el final.

›Day 341 | Free Solo@byebyehamburgers2680d

I started a challenge of taking 100 days off to mainly focus on my health and overall personal development and used this account as a personal blog. I enjoyed it to the extend where I turned it into a year long challenge were I try to find a good balance between health, work and my personal life...

I watch the oscar winning documentary Free Solo yesterday evening and really liked it. Even though I think its complete stupidity to climb el capitan without ropes (I would even argue the same with ropes), I could highly relate to that drive for perfection and the satisfaction this can give. It also inspired me to strive for this perfection myself in march just completely going for it and I also felt a desire to start rock climbing myself. It's quite an interesting world.

I had a though time falling asleep yesterday mosty thinking about how to approach the rest of the year and even got out of bed a couple times. I woke up quite early and had a rather pleasant dream seeing back a girl who was my friend many years back in college and who I had a big crush on. I remeber talking to her how I feel like I'm n my earl y 20s and how I want to stay forever young. I will go on a ski strip next in april and felt the need to bring it up in the conversation just to impress that I'm actually doing things I guess. Overall great dream and not a weird one like is usually the case :)

›Free Solo - Movie Review@coldsteem2802d

Free Solo is a documentary that examines the insane sport of rock climbing without a rope. I'm not sure what drives someone to take unnecessary risks. It seems rock climbing with proper gear is dangerous enough. In this documentary, filmmaker Jimmy Chin delves into the world of free solo rock climber Alex Hannold. The documentary attempts to give us insight into the sport, through the eyes of one its best, most daring climbers. But I'm still not sure I fully get it.

Jimmy Chin achieved some acclaim for his previous film, Meru, which was also about the sport of climbing. Both films have earned some hardware and were released to wide acclaim. I didn't really see a lot of similarity between the two films, beyond the obvious. In Free Solo, Chin gives us some insight into rock climbing without a rope. Alex Hannold has achieved notoriety for both his free solo climbs as well as his speed climbing with appropriate gear. He has set several records and holds several records for both free solo climbs as well as speed records. At the time this film was made, he was (and remains) the only person to have free solo climbed Half Dome in the Yosemite Valley. He also holds the speed record for the 2,000 foot rock. This film examines his preparations for a more daunting challenge. El Capitan, a 3,000 foot ascent without a rope.

While preparing for this challenge, we have an opportunity to meet Hannold. He is an odd character. He isn't overly emotional. He has spent a decade living in his van. He has recently met a girl, which seems to be a potentially deadly distraction. She understands his need to climb, but she also seems to genuinely care for his safety. She is responsible for a fall that injures the climber, adding to the sense that her presence could be fatal. The relationship between the two feels uneven, but genuine. It seems Hannold has difficulty with relationships. It is almost mechanical for him. It helped me understand him a bit better. It is the same mechanical approach he takes to climbing. Every step is measured. Every move planned. Every route a series of angles, each with a step-by-step process for completion. We get an intimate glimpse into the precision of this sport as we walk through the process of traversing several extremely dangerous points along the face of El Capitan.

As we learn more about free soloing, we also learn about the incredibly high fatality rate among climbers who engage in this dangerous sport. It is so dangerous that Hannold lost his sponsorship from Clif Bar as a result. The film examined a few climbers who have lost their lives pursuing free solo climbs, to include a death that happened during preparations for the unprecedented ascent of El Capitan. The tension in this film becomes palpable. It is almost as if you don't want to watch, out of fear and respect. There is quite a bit of talk about the film crew and the danger they pose to the climb, which requires absolute precision. One minor distraction could cause Hannold's death. It is an undertaking they don't take lightly. They are generally concerned with Hannold's welfare and don't want to interfere. The camera angles and drone use are all carefully planned to avoid interfering. I'm not sure what I wanted to see. I was content with a failed attempt, it if meant that Hannold merely backed out at some point. That may be the ending we get, so be prepared for it. It may not be. Telling you would take away the tension. But I can guarantee this is a cliff hanger, at least until the credits roll.

Free Solo was rated PG-13 by the MPAA. As a documentary, there isn't much here to be concerned with. There are some language issues and extreme peril. This has been deemed the greatest rock climbing undertaking in history. It is nerve wracking. There is also plenty of death talk. It is a reality in this sport. It is unavoidable. It is also contextual. This is the type of film that I would not set an age restriction on. It is real life. The film was exciting to watch and young viewers will merely see it as "rock climbing." The film has a one hour, forty minute run time. It moved with a nice pace and didn't feel like a lot of filler was added to stretch it to feature length. It was well done.

Free Solo was a worthwhile afternoon out yesterday. Alex Hannold is an accomplished climber whose rapid rise in the sport of rock climbing reached a pinnacle with the brash attempt to climb El Capitan. The film adds a human element to the story, providing a bit of background on Alex's family life. The mechanics of his sport are a reflection of his personality, which adds an interesting dynamic to the story and almost helped me understand his obsession. I really don't understand it. That which can be done with ropes, should be done that way. I guess I don't grasp the idea of unnecessary risk. Although all rock climbing is unnecessary. And risky. But that's me. I think I had a glimpse into what drives Hannold to climb. With or without ropes. It is him being the best he can be. The pursuit of perfection. At any cost, it would seem. Free Solo examines an extreme sport and will have you gripping your seat at times. It is an exceptional documentary worth seeing at the theater. 8/10.
