The Rapture of Free Soloing on Acid is quite a trip, both literally and metaphorically. Colter Johnson captures Dean Fidelman’s journey—a blend of climbing and art that just oozes the spirit of the 70s. The film has this raw energy, almost like you can feel the grit of the rock and the weight of the camera in Fidelman’s hands. It’s not just about climbing; it delves deep into the mindset of those pioneering the sport. The pacing feels deliberate, allowing you to soak in the beauty and danger of the climbs. The interviews with legends are so candid, painting a vivid picture of that era. You really get a sense of the camaraderie, the highs and lows, it’s all about chasing that elusive freedom.
