I think she understood the job but part of her issue with it was how addictive it was for him. Like she said, he was only 10% hers and the rest of him was the fires and that wasn't enough. What they don't actually cover very much in the movie is that the Granite Mountain Hotshots worked crazy hours, hours that surpasses a lot of other hotshot crews and that was kind of Eric's call.
I mean the plane didn't help, but the way they died and where they were in that valley was just a perfect storm. |
Did you ever watch the video from Chris's cell phone? I don't think I could stomach that.
I love when they are all walking in a line together. Reminds me of the Seven Dwarves. |
I think it's on youtube. I don't think I ever watched it. I kind of agree, it's like watching a video of someone die. The last words or view someone had, it feels a bit disrespectful.
That's crazy to me that they wouldn't know where they are. Like put some GPS trackers on them. I wonder if they do that now. |
Commentary is not stopping me from tearing up when Rose calls out to Mack for reassurance that it's going to be okay.

What did he say about the shelters? They can withstand heat but not flames?
Miles nailed that scene. I don't know how actors do that? |
Yeah they can withstand heat up to 300 degrees, but that they can't survive direct flame. Which is why they try to clear the brush and a spot where they can deploy where the fire will move around them. But in that case where they were, with the way the winds were it was just like a tunnel of fire.
That is so devastating that the guy that found the bodies could still hear voices because the guys radios were working. |

On a side note, the shelters look like baked potatoes in tin foil. I wonder why they were silver. |
I didn't like the middle school scene at first but now I do because it's what really happened. But where was his family???
|
I still don't understand how this song didn't even get Oscar consideration.
I love that they actually had all 19 guys portrayed on screen even if they didn't really get screen time no one was left out. |
So sad.
|
I wish there was an alternate happy ending. I feel bad saying this is such a great movie, it is because it makes you care about these guys and honors them. But it is just so so sad.

Did you see the deleted scene with Taylor?
|
I did, he's kind of really mean. I'm glad they cut it.
