Can you imagine being stuck between a huge rock and being unable to do anything?! That is what happened to Aron Ralston, played by James Franco in 127 Hours.
Also in this movie: Kate Mara as Kristi and Amber Tamblyn as Megan. Danny Boyle has directed a wonderful movie based on a true story that is going to make you wonder what you would do in the same situation.
After climbing a mountain, Aron gets stuck near Moab in Utah. The bottom line of the movie is something in the range of – you have no idea how strong you are until being strong is the only option that you have.
When you are stuck like Aron, you start to appreciate many things in life that you haven't till then. He was thirsty like never before but there was no water around him. He had to drink his own urine in order to stay alive. That is only one of the situations in which Aron found himself.
Calling for help was useless since there was no one to hear him. His friends were looking for him, but there was nothing they could do.
It is amazing what Aron managed to do.
SPOILER ALERT ahead!
He cuts his own arm off in order to get out and he succeeds.
