Poster of The Wildest Dream

The Wildest Dream

Documentary, Biography

Director: Anthony Geffen

Release Date: August 6, 2010

Where to Watch

Visually stunning, but I would have preferred if The Wildest Dream only focused on Mallory and didn’t lose focus by discussing modern mountaineers’ brushes with similar challenges and trying to recreate the journey using Mallory’s technology. The narrators (Liam Neeson, Natasha Richardson, Ralph Fiennes & Alan Rickman) are almost too good in expressing gravity and tone in contrast to the on-camera experts’ delivery. Includes footage from the original journey.
