COMMUNITY REVIEWS
Touching the Void submitted by SBNB on July 8, 2012, 10:47pm This was a good movie about a mountain climbing mishap. The story was well told and entertaining.
Based on Jack Donaghy's life submitted by klickitat on June 15, 2013, 11:00pm "Lemon, let me tell you a little story. It was 1994, and I was ice climbing when I fell into a crevasse and hurt my leg. There was only one way out, so fighting every natural instinct I have, I did the thing I hated the most. I climbed down into the darkness. And when I came back to camp, I went to the person who cut my line and said, 'Connie Chung, you saved my life.'"
