Somewhere over the rainbow

Rather interesting a person, the Arctic explorer Norwegian Roald Amundsen. And it's a small wonder this is the first movie based on him that I've seen. He's the guy who was the first man on South Pole, and after that, while mapping out the North Pole, he, his ship and crew were stuck in ice for few years, and eventually led the first proven expedition there in 1926. Carried a truly a competitive and adventurous soul and spirit. Died on one his missions. Or better yet, vanished, his body was never found. A cool insightful film.

Some people are blurred

Based on a Stephen King book and at least loosely based on the active years of serial killer BTK, aka Dennis Rader . Quite good otherwise ...
