Midweek Mention... Alive

Director Frank Marshall (ARACHNAPHOBIA) brings us the true story of Uruguayan Air Force Flight 571. The Fairchild FH-227D was carrying a rugby team and various related friends and family when it crashed into the Andes mountains in October 1972. A compelling true survival story with impressive location photography and awe inspiring scenery, time has been cruel on this as it all too often has the feel of a soap opera despite the decent acting talent involved which includes Ethan Hawke, Josh Hamilton and Illeana Douglas.It's also comforting to know that despite my fear of plane crashes, being suddenly thrust into a survival situation I'm hopelessly ill-equipped for and the notion of freezing or staving to death, all I'd need to do to survive an air disaster is smoke a lot of cigarettes and eat my friends ass. Sounds good.  You can now text us anonymously to leave feedback, suggest future content or simply hurl abuse at us. We'll read out any texts we receive on the show.
