Danny Boyle turns “127 Hours” into a Remarkable Piece
Imagine a lone adventure, you, in the middle of nowhere, for 127 Hours. What if something goes wrong?
A man named Aron Ralston, a mountain climber and public speaker, took upon himself in 2003 to bask in the empty canyon near Moab, Utah, thus his adventures then, is now part of a big screen fiasco delegated by Danny Boyle. He uses Ralston’s autobiography that was published in 2004 “Between a Rock and A Hard Place” and delivers a film, with stunningly kinetic photography and rapid-fire editing that might as well change the way we connect with films today.
Aron Ralston is played by James Franco, a man, filled with adventure, passion, hopes and admiration. This film truly provides a sincere look of the talent behind Franco. His comparison as Toby Mcquire’s side-kick, can now subdue, thus Franco has proven to be emotionally captivating and exhilarating in this brilliant set of adventures Danny Boyle has neatly organized in 127 Hours.
Amusingly so, this film had 2 DP’s- Director of Photography, cameras in all kinds of angles with the film crew belaying down a cramped canyon, only to successfully portray a sense of openness and hope. Although, clustered in the tiniest of cracks amongst rocks, the film gives a provoking story and undeniably so, a pungent truth of the survival of mankind.

Wow,… talk about a difficult location to shoot a film.
