James Franco portrays Aron Lee Ralston, an outdoorsman pushed to his extraordinary limits but yet survives. In his autobiography Between a Rock and a Hard Place, Ralston recounts how he was stuck for five days and seven hours at Blue John Canyon. When he became trapped in a dislodged boulder, his only chance of survival was to amputate his own arm…with a dull pocketknife.

Remember The Titans
Herman Boone is the African-American football coach who integrated T. C. Williams High School’s football team in Alexandria, Virginia. While the classic film took us on an emotional journey as Boone, his assistant coach Bill Yoast, and the many remarkable athletes shattered records, it’s not historically accurate. To start, Boone actually caused a lot of athletes to quit the team, Bertier’s accident didn’t happen until after the Championship game, and there are plenty more like that.
