Itinerary:
***'127 Hours' is based on the book 'Between a Rock and a Hard Place' by Aron Ralston and has received excellent early reviews***

'127 Hours' is the new film from Danny Boyle, the Academy Award winning director of last year's Best Picture, 'Slumdog Millionaire'. '127 Hours' is the true story of mountain climber Aron Ralston's (James Franco) remarkable adventure to save himself after a fallen boulder crashes on his arm and traps him in an isolated canyon in Utah.

Over the next five days Ralston examines his life and survives the elements to finally discover he has the courage and the wherewithal to extricate himself by any means necessary, scale a 65 foot wall and hike over eight miles before he is finally rescued. Throughout his journey, Ralston recalls friends, lovers (Clemence Poesy), family, and the two hikers (Amber Tamblyn and Kate Mara) he met before his accident. Will they be the last two people he ever had the chance to meet?

A visceral thrilling story that will take an audience on a never before experienced journey and prove what we can do when we choose life.

We will meet at 6:40PM in the lobby. Purchase your ticket as you enter. Please be on time as we will only wait 5 minutes. We may go for coffee/drinks after the movie if anyone is interested.

Warning: This film contains scenes which are graphic and may be disturbing to some.
