Oscar winning director, Danny Boyle's follow-up to his acclaimed Slumdog Millionaire, will be hitting theaters before the end of the year making it a definite awards contender. 127 Hours tells the story of Aron Ralston, played in the movie by James Franco. Ralston was a rock climber who got his arm trapped underneath a boulder and had to chop it off then scale a 65 foot cliff before being found. Fox Searchlight has made an official release date for November 5th of this year, and I'm real excited for this. If there is one thing I love about Danny Boyle is he has always seemed to know who he is as a director, all of his movies being consistent in style and substance, and that is what makes Boyle one of the best currently making movies. 127 Hours sounds grizzly, but extremely intriguing and if played out right can be a cinematic marvel. With some more light shed onto the emotional component of the story, where during Ralston's time in the wilderness he recalls his lover and two hikers that he met just before his accident, this makes the movie sound all the more promising. More to come, including a trailer in due time.
