So there's this kinda neat looking movie called MOUNTAIN that is getting a week long run in Cambridge at the Kendall Square cinema starting this Friday (June 1st). It has some pretty good reviews (90%) on Rotten Tomato.

Seems to be mostly sweeping scenic landscape shots with a mix of climbing / skiing / other mountain sports, narrated by William Dafoe and set to an orchestral score. It doesn't have a normal story or plot, just a lot of scenic stuff (which seems to be the complaint of people who haven't liked it). Anyway maybe check it out. Links to the trailer and a review are below.

Worth pointing out that some of the footage seems to be recycled from things you may have already seen (reel rock honnold stuff, Meru, etc).

Trying multiple ways of embedding the trailer:

Just saw this last night (Monday June 4th), it was good! Worth seeing, but definitely not mind blowing in my opinion!
