127 Hours of Hellish Hope
Danny Boyle’s follow-up to his Academy Award-winning Slumdog Millionaire is the film 127 Hours, which depicts the true survival story of Aron Ralston, who was forced to amputate his own arm while pinned beneath a boulder in the mountains around Moab. The film is exhilarating, uplifting, and one of the best of the year. I was fortunate to recently sit down and speak with director Boyle.
When did you realize that this could be a movie? I read Aron’s book in 2006, and I approached him then about making it as this kind of film with an actor playing the part and it being first person. At that stage, he had just finished the book and didn’t want to give up that kind of control. He wanted to try and make it a documentary. … I didn’t think it would work like that. I said the only way you’ll ever be able to depict it properly and for the audience to tolerate what happens at the end of the movie is if you have that empathy with the lead actor that only grea

127 Hours
127 Hours features one of the most brutally graphic scenes of violence I’ve ever seen on screen. But unlike the many films these days (the Saws and Hostels, etc.) for which such scenes are commonplace, 127 Hours uses the extreme depiction not to underscore the depravity of man, but to viscerally communicate the preciousness of life and the perseverance of hope. The result is a film about the extremes of life that, for the viewer, feels like running a marathon or climbing a mountain: an experience that is excruciatingly painful and yet supremely cathartic.
The film recounts the true story of Aron Ralston (James Franco), a hiker whose solo excursion in Utah’s Canyonlands National Park turned horrifying when he fell into a crevice and had his lower right arm hand pinned by an immovable fallen boulder. For 127 hours, Ralston did everything he could to escape his predicament, all while watching his water supply diminish and his chances of rescue fade. Faci
