Any chance they'd add that 12 minute clip to the DVD for those of us who won't be able to make it to that initial showing? Or even better, have it posted on Vimeo or something?

I saw that in OZ. It is a side of Jill I never knew existed :-D

I would go see the movie if a portion of the procedes went toward getting access to closed sites. I might even buy spring water for the same reason.

I'd hit it, two times.

I saw the flick the other day and thought it was a good. I enjoyed it and in fact will be off to the movies again very shortly with a bunch of mates.
Here is what I thought of it, just my opinion off course. It will be interesting to see what everyone else thinks of it.

Towards the end of the expedition when hauling gear out, there was a freak storm which dumped inches of rain in a short period of time. The cave doline acted as a bath tub outlet for the surrounding plain and the water poured in causing part of the cave entrance to collapse. Most of the divers were well inside the cave at the lake's edge, and were "trapped" there for 24 hours or more until the cave stopped "moving" and they were able to negotiate a new way out. No-one was hurt

That is a great news story. I have a copy of Nullarbor Dreaming, and that is Wes Skiles voice near the end warning people to be careful digging out. Seeing that report may make seeing Sanctum have more meaning.

It is copywrited so it isn't online anywhere.

I'd like to see Nullarbor Dreaming - I wonder if Sanctum will drum up enough interest for Karst Productions to make Nullarbor Dreaming available again.
