Rate the last movie you watched out of 10

scott of the antarctic (1949)
4/10

pip pip, old chap! a great day to die for the empire etc etc.

i imagine the norwegians have done some sort of film about nansen and amundsen. i’ve never been bothered to look. amundsen is some legend all the same.

it’s probably one for the book thread but madhouse at the end of the earth is well worth a read. a belgian expedition to antarctica which ended up being first winter spent there by anyone. amundsen was on that ship as well as frederick cook who was a polar explorer and finally debunked as a fraud which was a bit harsh on him. the great polar fraud is another excellent book about the search for the north pole.

Theres a Norwegian/American fillum about Amundsen, its distinctly meh.


They have his boat the Fram on display outside Oslo. Its well worth a look, all three levels of it.
 
In my opinion, The Banshees of Inisherin is a masterpiece. It is an insightful commentary on our need to be something, anything - a good man, a loyal sister, an artist but in the end it means nothing. It’s just another attachment just like wanting a new phone or a desired address. Farrell has come a long way as an actor also. It will clean up awards.
