![]() Only after he does his climbs will Marc let the film team film, because says Marc, “If you’re not alone then it’s not a solo.” Mortimer can’t argue with that, but that Marc was willing to go back and solo on the same wild terrain for the camera says a hell of a lot about both Marc’s talent (imagine if Honnold had gone back to solo the crux of El Cap a few more times for the camera?) and his ethics. Marc doesn’t even have a phone, which as a professional athlete seems impossible. This makes for some really funny scenes as Mortimer scans Instagram to find out where his star climber has gone (climbing is always the answer). Because, in an Instagram reality world, Marc is flat out not interested in being more famous, is bored in the interviews easily, and finally heads for the hills to go climbing when he’s supposed to be shooting. Mortimer narrates the film brilliantly, and you can feel his simultaneous respect for Marc, and frustration as he tries to get a wild man to sit still for the camera, or even film his ascents. ![]()
