What a wonderful find. Seeing the men whose names are legend going about their lives completed the circle that began in my early teens when I first became interested in polar exploration. The film is from a more innocent time. Or should I say, naive. The blinkered nationalism the permeates it played a role in Britain's decline after losing the best of a generation in the first world war. And as usual Amundsen is demonized, as if his efficient was of traveling, learned from the Inuit, was someho
This is an amazing film, containing some incredible footage and photos of the tragic Scott expedition. I have seen lots of Ponting's superb photography but only became aware of the documentary while recently reading "The Race to the End", a fascinating book detailing the race between Scott and Amundsen to reach the pole. I have since been searching for the movie at libraries and video stores without success, so I was delighted to find it here. It more than lived up to my expectations. Thanks!
