Profile of the legendary explorer who led some of the most epic voyages of the 20th century. Includes the incredible tale of Shackleton's expedition to the South Pole beginning in 1914.

South:Shackleton and the Endurance
South is a wonderful video featuring real motion footage from Frank Hurley's cameras on the expedition. Even though there is no sound they added words and nice piano music in the backround. The video features everything from pictures of their departure, to picture of the dogs on deck, to pictures of the ship being crushed, falling apart, and its final sinking. This film shows the truth of what ...

Dude.... hit this!
I just got my copy yesterday and already watched it 3 times. Kush totally blew me away! You can tell it's an indie film too, because it's so real (almost shockingly), not at all like the sugar-coated stuff we've become accustomed to seeing the huge studios put out. It's like watching a movie about me & my friends back in the good ol' high school days. I assure you this, you haven't seen a ...

Shackleton - Still the Story of Stories
In the annals of exploration, there may be no greater story than Shackleton's. It is told with all the detail and none of the embellishment from which other chronicles suffer. You will feel the heartbreak and joy of perhaps the greatest adventure in Antarctic history. A great story superbly told on film!!

Shackleton - The Greatest Survival Story of All Time (3-Disc Collector's Edition)

A&E Home Video, 2002

Superb historical drama with some great acting
The story of Ernest Shackleton's grandiosely-named Imperial Trans-Antarctic Expedition is a pretty amazing one, which I will not summarise here as other reviewers have already done so. Yet there is another story to this film - how one man fought against self-doubt, the hostility of the authorities and the indifference of the public, ultimately to rise triumphant out of a difficult situation and ...

Informational and Inspirational
This film is one for the ages. A good synopsis of the Shackleton story that focuses on the leadership and togetherness that took place on this adventure. I am a corporate leadership trainer who has used this film to teach hundreds of people about true leadership and teamwork. This film is a must see for anyone in a leadership role or hoping to one day attain one. It is also a very good story ...

Great story-some unfortunate stylistic and cinematic ideas
Once you get past the awful stylistic choices, this movie has a compelling story line with likeable main characters. Unfortunately, the heavy stylized effects start off early when the good vampire's girl gets turned into a vampire by a jealous vampire girlfriend. It would be easy to dismiss the story at this point. The dancelike action-reaction scene falls short. But if you watch this movie, ...

Watch Alongside "The Endurance"
In all fairness, the documentary "The Endurance" may have used this work as its stepping stone. "The Endurance" was longer, went into more detail, and clearly had a larger budget. Still, you may want to see both as this work went more into Shackleton's early years and previous voyages. "The Endurance" had foreign language subtitles when this work did not, by the way. This work had few ...
