127 Hours dramatizes climber Aron Ralston’s attempt to survive after a falling boulder pins his arm inside an isolated Utah canyon. Alone and carrying limited supplies, Aron records messages, reviews the decisions that brought him there and searches for a way to escape. James Franco plays Ralston, with Amber Tamblyn, Kate Mara, Clémence Poésy, Lizzy Caplan, Kate Burton and Treat Williams in the supporting cast.

Danny Boyle directed and co-wrote the screenplay with Simon Beaufoy, adapting Ralston’s memoir Between a Rock and a Hard Place. 20th Century Studios identifies November 5, 2010 as the U.S. release date and lists a 93-minute, R-rated presentation.
