Northface
In 1936, young German climbers Toni Kurz (Benno Fürmann) and Andreas Hinterstoisser (Florian Lukas) face off against a rival Austrian duo in an attempt to be the first team to scale the infamous north face of the Eiger in the Swiss Alps. As the men make the treacherous climb, journalist Luise (Johanna Wokalek) -- Toni's childhood love -- covers the biggest story of her career. Philipp Stölzl helms this drama based on a true story.
It is in German with English subtitles but it is worth the effort to watch this extraordinary movie.
If you have a Neflix account you can stream it to your computer or TV.
I give it a ***** rating and I'm not easy to please. Check it out!
