5.0 out of 5 stars
liked it when I saw it,
By
This review is from: Edmund Hillary & Tenzing Norgay - Climbing To The Roof Of The World (PBS) (DVD)
I gave it five stars when I saw it years ago via a red envelope service (hint-hint!). It has the science aspect for scientists, the challenge aspect for athletes or macho people. For those who like hearing about humankind's ability to accomplish things, this is for you.
Too often, in multiracial duos, the man of color is rendered secondary. Most people don't remember Jim, they remember Huck Finn. Tonto is a sidenote to the Lone Ranger. There was a documentary that said either Lewis or Clark refused to free the African-American man who helped them to explore the West. Here, Hillary could not have survived without Tenzing. The ancestors of both men are interviewed and it's done on equal footing. For those who promote multiracial teamwork, this is something to see and remember. |
