i have always admire susan sarandon for her integrity and honesty in her private life as well a her talent a an actor . i therefor find it strange that she would appear in a film that so distort that fact . her character rescue from the south pole be do by a canadian charter company from edmonton and alberta fly a canadian design and build twin otter aircraft . the trip have be turn down by the u airforce and navy and coast guard a beyond their capability . the same company stag a similar rescue a few year later to bring out a man from the south pole base . i feel that the film fairly represent a very gripping subject and document a very courageous woman face a frightening task . i fail to see why the producer would find it necessary ignore the bravery of the rescue pilot and show the rescue plane a a usaf hercules .
