I'm somewhat reluctant to post here because I really hate to knock any part of the ondra discussion off of the front page... but this movie is a must own. Everyone should see this thing at least once; it is very inspiring to watch how strong and bold these guys were. Pitch in and help get this thing funded, the movie is definitely worth it. Hell it might even inspire you to broaden your climbing experience.

Cool! Thanks for pitching in, everybody. I haven't seen this film since the early '70s. Can't wait to get my copy.

I haven't seen all of it yet and am looking forward to my copy. It said we would have it in November, right?.. That's quick.

Yep, they said November. Seems mighty quick to me as well. It would be nice to get it before Christmas.

Got an email last night saying that with 800 supporters and $28K raised they are sufficiently funded for the project. Cool!

Larry, i'll let it slide this time but i'd hoped for more from you than encouraging this kind of collectivist-socialist action.

anybody out there done the Rostrum?
