TIFF 2010: World Premiere Of Boyle's '127 Hours'

Tonight I was one of the lucky people to attend the world premiere of Danny Boyle's 127 Hours film. Not really knowing what to expect when I was walking, Boyle exceeded my expectations once again with this extraordinary film. After bringing us great films in Trainspotting, 28 Days Later, The Beach, and of course 2009's Slumdog Millionare, the director has blown my mind once again with his latest film. 127 hours tells the real life story of mountain climber Aron Ralston, and his near death experience after having his arm trapped under a large building while mountain climbing near Moab, Utah. The film is riviting, emotional and crazy intense, and played beautifully to the audience in the Ryerson theatre (the film got a standing ovation at the end). The film is a one man show, starring James Franco, and he carried the screen beautifully through the entirety of the film, giving an excellent performance. Being the world premiere of the film, attendees included the full cast, as well as Aron Ralston (whom the movie is based on) himself, who gave an emotional and heart-warming Q&A session with audience members. Below are photos of the cast from the film, including Aron Ralston himself. The review for the film will be up soon, but for now enjoy some of the photos of this great premiere from TFK.
