If a large mountain one people demanded something, then that’s an attitude. Admiration, fear, greed, something. Indifference is not good, not even played. As for example, the British mountaineer George Mallory, which is one of the most famous mountain pose questions at all, was asked why he wanted to actually climb Mount Everest (in leather boots and without gas cylinders without satellite telephone and Jack Wolfskin-full equipment, it was the early 30 of the last century), his attitude was an openly ironic. “Because it’s there”, he said.
He was just Brite authorized this, and actually he was scared, of course. Not long later, Mallory was still dead. The mountain, which they, as where he is, “Goddess Mother of the Earth” call had shaken him. A goddess sees no irony halt, with a goddess makes you not kidding. And businesses you do not do with her and her ascent as well.
The mountain is always right
Top If you leave them alone like that, did stop the people who live there, where Mount Everest is, up until the correct climbers came and then any fool who can distinguish an ice pick from a lice comb and says that he necessarily the first or Hinz Kunz, or whatever he is just, must be at the highest peak on earth. What’s not attitude, of course, but a madness. Why the goddess-mother constantly shakes, which is their right, and lying around on their frozen bodies.
Now would a film from the Goddess Mother told and one of its most spectacular Abschüttelaktionen, by a violent death, the treats a large modern drama of hubris and humility, even taking a stance. The Mountain towards or outrage that is done to him, the history and the people, the living and the dead. The can you expect.
The Icelander Baltasar Kormákur, a cinematic Wind-water-cold expert This Alpinismusmenetekel has filmed. Those catastrophe that occurred on the middle of May 1996 and Everest and became world famous by Jon Krakauer’s legendary and bestsellendes worldwide book “In Thin Air”.
In May 1996, making two groups of tourists, led by the legendary mountaineers Rob Hall and Scott Fisher, on to climb the Goddess Mother Earth. It is the time of blossoming extreme adventure tourism. Hall and Fisher have extreme trekking company founded – the hot, as now hot startups. Who applied $ 65,000, which they bring to the summit. A postman is, a Japanese woman, a Texas millionaire named Beck Weathers, a journalist named Jon Krakauer.
Do not worry, I love you
Because there is congestion at the summit, and the climatic window to climb closes again, the competing groups actually do together. Almost a textbook then done almost everything must not happen. And a dozen people lost, crash, freeze, die on the way down in a huge snowstorm, including Fisher and Hall. The phone still in extinction just below the Hillary Step, the only real mountaineering challenge, on 8760 meters with his heavily pregnant woman, she should not worry, he says, then there is silence.
It’s all there in this material. You just have to put an attitude on the day. Kormákur was apparently too strenuous.
In almost agonizing assiduity he tells the story from departure to Nepal until the tearful return of the millionaire Weather in the bosom of his family and the shadow of the giant deer oil painting in the living room, which is shown a multiple equal to the great dismay.
Somehow comes before everything. More but not
Of this and of which he tells. Everything is a little bit there. A few Sherpas be shown (so that there is afterwards no Shitstorm self-proclaimed Indigenevölkerrechtewächter which would be even worse than the freezing rain on Everest), but just forget. On the garbage problem on the mountain is pointed discreetly. On the impacts of mountain tourism.
Casually die the people that – have tacitly accepted – that’s the kick. Man suffers with somehow more difficult, which is not only at “their own fault” is that constantly goes through your mind, but also the fact that they merely on the color of their (surprisingly logo poor) may eventually differ Survival clothes.
Dario Marianelli hangs a veil of enormous indifference about music. Women are there to wring their hands and cry. The question of why they do this, the insane on the mountain is placed and allowed to stand.
Kormákur dramaturgy strayed from everything “Everest” could have been, soon such that its film dies to himself. And because Kormákur afraid to stage even the usual disaster film spectacle, he did not even fit to be annoyed, is in its simple tedium, its calculated Ausbalanciertheit a downright public service Mountain porn.
Sometime you want actually only see the mountain. Because the really looks spectacular. Wishes away all those pesky ants crawling around on it there. And can understand him well, the mountain that he shakes off.
As Obelix, incidentally, after being on the hunt for the Edelweiss on the side of Asterix and in a kind of alcoholic Wachkoma the Alps had crossed and with its nose at the foot of the mountains – was something like that looked like those of 1996 and Everest frozen three-quarters millionaire Beck Weathers, was hit a boulder, demand – alcohol and snuff conditionally how he had because Switzerland so found, he said: “flat.” With “Everest” he had fared as well.
