Considering the dramatic and sensitive theme of the film and with respect of the survivors and families of those that passed away in 1972, the screen play is very well written and the characters are portrayed very well and you can only imagine what exactly happened. Most of the time the pilots are to blame in the film and the decision to eat them is seen as a laugh until the survivors are in a huddle making the tough decision. it tough times they are a few laughs and comments made but nothing goes overboard and the film goes back to being serious. Not a film I can watch over and over but like to return to it every once in a while. Attachment 251276 |
