When it comes to sport climbing Red River Ruckus is a classic: youtube.com/watch?v=_SOmVRZ…

Ha, Thanks for that link!  
Was unaware of the film or that pictures I & friends took were used in it.
13:51 - John Cioci follows Jungle Beat.
14:15 - Me on Roux Shambo

Not sure what else is in there yet.
Talked to John and found out that the team making the film asked him for "vintage" photos of climbing in the gorge, and he gave them some old 3*5's.
...which ended up in the film.

It'll always be Touching the Void (2003) no matter what and I have seen most climbing flicks from Hollywood stuff to real ones like this one or "North Face (2008)."

Epic film and a tale of survival.
