Two days ago, in Fort Worth, Texas, Katherine and I watched Free Solo (2018) at a theater. The movie is a documentary about Alex Honnold's attempt to climb El Capitan without ropes or assistance. The movie is riveting. I've dreamt about it both nights and can't stop thinking about it. During the movie, I kept wiping my hands on my pants to keep them dry, as if doing so would help Honnold get a better grip. Without giving too much away, let me say that this is one of the best movies I've ever seen. It may be the best. I hope you get a chance to watch it.
Here is the trailer.
