IN A POST-9/11 world, terrorism is rarely far away from the front pages. But Entebbe, the story of the taking of Air France Flight 139, is a timely reminder that what’s past remains prologue. “No-one in 1976 was boarding a plane without fear of hijacking,” says Rosamund Pike, who plays German terrorist Brigitte Kuhlmann. “There were two hijackings a month in ’76. It was an everyday fear.” The notorious attack and subsequent rescue mission has been the subject of three previous films, but Entebbe may be the first to be as alive to the emotions as the action. Directed by José Padhila (Elite Squad, Narcos), the film charts Flight 139’s hijacking by German revolutionaries Brigitte Kuhlmann and Wilfried Böse (Daniel Brühl) alongside Palestinian freedom fighters, then the subsequent hostage situation…

PUT DOWN THE tin-foil hat: The Alienist has nothing to do with little green men in flying saucers. Rather, it’s a gritty dark-tinged period crime drama from True Detective’s Cary Fukunaga, based on Caleb Carr’s bestselling historical novel, anchored around Daniel Brühl’s Dr Laszlo Kreizler, a psychologist — or ‘alienist’, in the vocabulary of the time — attempting to solve a series of grisly murders. The good news is that he has a team of mavericks to help, led by Luke Evans’ “high-functioning alcoholic” sketch artist John Moore. The bad news is that they will have to invent entirely new fields of forensic profiling in order to do it. “Kreizler wants us to get inside the mind of the killer, to understand why he’s doing it,” explains Evans. “None of…

NO RABBITS WERE harmed during the filming of Peter Rabbit. Probably because there are no rabbits in Peter Rabbit: the filmmakers just couldn’t get the damn things to talk, act, and follow direction. Thank heavens for CGI. Adapted from Beatrix Potter’s quintessentially English children’s books, with James Corden voicing the titular bunny, and Domhnall Gleeson and Rose Byrne as humans McGregor (no longer ‘Mister’) and animal-loving neighbour Bea (in tribute to the author), it’s not stuck in 1902. “It’s timeless,” says director Will Gluck. “We’ve taken what Beatrix Potter wrote and expanded from that.” “I thought it would be great if the rabbits looked ludicrous, but Will completely disagreed,” says costume designer Lizzy Gardiner of the clothing challenges. “He wanted them to wear what teenage kids wear. And dressing rabbits…

★★★★★ OUT 29 MARCH RATED MA15+ / 107 MINS DIRECTOR Armando Iannucci CAST Steve Buscemi, Jeffrey Tambor, Simon Russell Beale, Michael Palin, Olga Kurylenko PLOT Russia, 1953. When Joseph Stalin (Adrian McLoughlin) has a fatal heart attack, it creates a power vacuum inside the highest levels of government. Cue a pile-up of plotting, as his subordinates scramble to take control. CABINET RESHUFFLES. CAMPAIGN funding. Congressional hearings on governmental efficiencies. These are not subjects which naturally lend themselves to mirth, yet Armando Iannucci has long proven himself capable of wringing laughs out of the stodgiest, most solemn topics imaginable. The Death Of Stalin, however, is his most impressive feat yet. After taking on Whitehall and Washington with TV shows The Thick Of It and Veep, the master satirist’s new film tackles not…

★★★★ OUT 29 MARCH RATED TBC / 100 MINS DIRECTOR Aki Kaurismäki CAST Sherwan Haji, Sakari Kuosmanen, Tommi Korpela PLOT After winning big at poker, salesman Wikström (Kuosmanen) buys an unloved Helsinki restaurant. Across town, Syrian refugee Khaled (Haji) escapes from his state facility. Their paths will soon cross. A DROLL CHRONICLER of the mundane rhythms of life, Aki Kaurismäki wouldn’t have been the first director you’d imagine regularly tackling the current refugee crisis. Until his previous film, African migrant drama Le Havre, the closest the Finnish writer/director had come to a full-blown migration crisis was getting the Leningrad Cowboys’ quiffs into America. Yet with The Other Side Of Hope he delivers what is easily his most political movie yet, a two-finger salute to cold-hearted bureaucracy and his homeland’s apathy…

Tell us about your character, Shuri. She’s the princess of Wakanda and a pretty big deal! She is the person who creates all of the technology. She’s a scientist, but also a doctor — she can heal people! She’s everything I wish I was, and pretty much protects the throne, her nation and her brother, the King. Even at 18, she has to do her bit. She has such a lovely spirit. I loved playing her. It was fulfilling for me. It was refreshing. You have appeared in Holby City and Top Boy . How does it feel to do a film of this scale? All the TV, all the films… it’s all just trained me for this moment — it wasn’t a…

★★ NETFLIX OUT NOW DIRECTOR Julius Onah CAST Gugu Mbatha-Raw, David Oyelowo, Daniel Brühl, Chris O’Dowd, Ziyi Zhang PLOT Earth’s energy resources are kaput. In five years we’ll have none at all, and as such, civilisation is crumbling. To solve this problem and save the world, a small crew is sent to a space station entirely designed to undertake an experimental mission. ONE THING’S FOR certain with Cloverfield films — you know you’re getting some monsters. Or a monster. At some point. Probably. But now, as we hit the third instalment, that’s about all we know, because in terms of tone, worldview and quality control… it’s a crapshoot. What are these films? There is no linear throughline, not conventionally at least. At best it’s an anthology; at worst, marketing. 2008’s…

★★ AMAZON PRIME VIDEO OUT NOW EPISODES VIEWED 7-10 CREATED BY Ben Edlund CAST Peter Serafinowicz, Griifin Newman, Valorie Curry, Brendan Hines, Yara Martinez, Scott Speiser, Jackie Earle Haley PLOT Having rescued citizens from a bus crash, The Tick (Serafinowicz) and Arthur (Newman) are finally a fully-fledged superhero duo. But there’s no time to bask in their new-found fame. They need to save The City from a marauding giant, a killer robot and the revived megalomaniac known as The Terror (Haley). IT’S AN INTERESTING time to welcome a new batch of episodes of The Tick. While Amazon recently cancelled a trio of comedies — Jill Soloway’s I Love Dick, Tig Notaro’s One Mississippi and high-concept muscles-from-Brussels vehicle Jean-Claude Van Johnson — this live-action iteration of the 32-year-old, blue-suited comic book…

THE DELOREAN ERNEST CLINE “Ready Player One will be the first time you’ve seen the iconic Back To The Future time machine in a major Hollywood movie since 1990. It’s a huge part of my life. When I sold my book, I bought a DeLorean to drive around the country on my book tour. I wrote it off as a business expense. When I first went to meet Steven at Amblin, he signed my glove-box lid for me and has promised he will never sign another one. I have the only Steven Spielberg-autographed time machine.” CLASSIFIED SIMON PEGG “My favourite is something of a spoiler because it doesn’t appear in the book. Like Ready Player One, it is a film based on a beloved book which became a classic itself…

IT LASTS FOR JUST A SHADE UNDER 24 MINUTES, but the opening sequence of Saving Private Ryan has proved timeless. Before the deeply personal Schindler’s List in 1993, Spielberg had depicted Nazis in his movies with a cartoonish quality; over-the-top baddies who existed just to be bopped on the jaw by the hero. Schindler’s List saw Spielberg mature at a remarkable rate, and take World War II and its horrors seriously. Just five years later he’d take that new ethos to its remarkable conclusion with this sequence, that follows Captain John Miller (Tom Hanks) as he lands, with his fellow Rangers, on Omaha Beach, Normandy, on 6 June 1944: D-Day. D-Day had been depicted on the big screen before, of course, in the likes of The Longest Day, but Spielberg…

EVERY FILM COMES with its own mythology, its own history woven from sharp stories and warm memories — the years spent giving your brain over to funding battles and your soul over to creative differences. Of disputes and struggles and false starts and frustrations and epiphanies and triumphs. The mythology fractures further when you’re dealing with a first. Firsts are tough, firsts test, firsts take superhuman effort, are transformative. They should, right? They’re firsts. So, the most surprising part of the story director Ava DuVernay tells about making fantasy sci-fi epic A Wrinkle In Time is just how linear, simple and smooth it is. The legs kicking serenely beneath the water. It began with an approach by Tendo Nagenda, EVP of production at Disney live-action. “He approached me with the…

00:02:02 CHAIN REACTION __ The first two Thor films opened with our hero triumphant. This time, he’s in chains in the lair of the evil Surtur. “We felt it would be interesting to open with the hero in a predicament, like the ’80s films when you’d open with Indiana Jones in a spot and you’d be like, ‘How did he get here?’” says director Taika Waititi, who took the image from a comic in which Thor battled Gorr, The God Butcher. Yes, Gorr. 00:23:17 HAMMER! IT’S STOP TIME __ The trailer showed Thor’s hammer, Mjolnir, meeting its end in New York following the death of Odin, but that always felt like “a massive bummer” to the director, who finally relocated the scene to a Norwegian cliff. “We needed to go…

COUNT OLAF IS back. The hook-nosed antagonist of Lemony Snicket’s A Series Of Unfortunate Events is still attempting to steal the Baudelaire fortune via evil schemes, garish costumes and “terrible acting” — and still without much success. With Season 2 about to debut on Netflix, we enlisted Olaf himself, Neil Patrick Harris, to talk us through four of his most diabolical new disguises. 1 DETECTIVE DUPIN “Detective Dupin was written by Mr. Handler [author Daniel Handler, aka the real Lemony Snicket] as a guy who wears everything and anything flashy to justify his authority. He comes strutting in with an unparalleled and embarrassing confidence. He likes to scat and sing musical poetry, but he is no Lin Manuel Miranda, I can tell you. I think Dupin may be my favourite…

★★★ OUT NOW / 130 MINS RATED MA15+ DIRECTOR Nicolai Fuglsig CAST Chris Hemsworth, Michael Shannon, Michael Peña, Navid Negahban PLOT Post-9/11, army captain Mitch Nelson (Hemsworth) is sent to Afghanistan to lead a secret 12-man mission deep in Taliban territory. Working alongside a local warlord, he tries to land a retaliatory blow in the War On Terror. And make it out alive. “FIVE WEEKS AGO, 19 men attacked our country,” rasps William Fichtner’s chrome-domed army colonel, early on in this Jerry Bruckheimer-produced war drama. “The 12 of you will be the first ones to fight back.” It’s a line that acts as a neat summary of not just 12 Strong’s plot, but the raw desire for vengeance that propels much of its pulsating action. But it’s also a moment…

★★★ OUT 22 MARCH RATED TBC / 95 MINS DIRECTOR Will Gluck CAST James Corden, Rose Byrne, Domhnall Gleeson, Daisy Ridley, Margot Robbie, Elizabeth Debicki PLOT When nasty neighbour Mr McGregor (Neill) dies, Peter Rabbit (Corden) thinks his worries are over. Then a new McGregor (Gleeson) inherits the house and Peter has a whole new enemy to contend with. YOU COULD WRITE a complicated thesis about the morality of Beatrix Potter’s most famous story. Peter Rabbit is a story without a hero. On the one side you have Peter, who believes he is entitled to steal whatever vegetables he likes from the garden nearest his warren. On the other you have Mr. McGregor, the owner of said garden, who believes that if a rabbit strays into his garden then it…

★★★★ OUT NOW RATED M / 104 MINS DIRECTOR Sebastián Lelio CAST Daniela Vega, Francisco Reyes, Luis Gnecco, Aline Küppenheim PLOT Marina (Vega) is a singer and waitress who’s just moved in with her older boyfriend Orlando (Reyes). But when he dies suddenly, she finds herself rejected by his family and under suspicion from the police, because she is a trans woman. THE DEATH OF a loved one is always a nightmarish prospect, but that fear is given a particularly horrifying edge in this humanist story, told with fantastical flourishes. It’s anchored by the riveting Daniela Vega, whose Marina is faced with suspicion and potential homelessness after her boyfriend’s sudden collapse. We’re introduced to Marina as a rather glamorous, very beautiful young woman, hurrying to her nightclub singing gig and…

LIKE A CHILD IN ONE OF HIS MOVIE, STEVEN SPIELBERG I AWESTRUCK He is standing before every poster in his 32-strong filmography, from Duel, a made-for-TV movie that demanded a place on a big screen, to Ready Player One, his latest science-fiction extravaganza. On Universal Studios Stage 20 for Empire’s photoshoot, even he seems taken aback by the width, depth and breadth of his career. “Did I make these movies?” he asks, perusing Empire’s poster gallery. “Just print it — don’t put me in the shot.” Spielberg’s body of work is without parallel in modern cinema. Scrub that, without parallel in cinema. On his journey from 8mm-obsessed teen to wunderkind TV director to Hollywood legend, he has consistently reinvented movies in every which way you can think of, from pre-viz…

IN 1993, A GUTSY PALEOBOTANIST, A GROUCHY paleontologist and a cackling chaotician with rock-star specs made a trip to a far-off island. Cinema was never the same again. Fusing old-school practical effects with state-of-the-art CGI, Jurassic Park transformed blockbuster moviemaking, paving the way for the likes of The Lord Of The Rings and Avatar. But beyond the venom-spitting, lawyer-chomping, car-crushing spectacle, it is equally beloved for its human characters, none more so than Laura Dern’s Ellie Sattler, Sam Neill’s Alan Grant and Jeff Goldblum’s Ian Malcolm. Exchanging talon-sharp banter (“You’re married?” “Occasionally”) and locked in a quasi-love triangle, the three stars make the film riveting and hilarious even before the park’s attractions are let out of their pens. With a quarter of a century having passed since the original film’s…

WELCOME TO THE SHATTERDOME. EMPIRE IS WALKING through the biggest stage at Fox Studios, Australia, one previously occupied by Alien: Covenant. You can tell we are Down Under because a) the crew are unflaggingly friendly and b) every other crew T-shirt is from Hacksaw Ridge. We are visiting the HQ of the Pan Pacific Defense Corps, the international strike force set up to save the world from giant monsters (Kaiju) by twatting them with big robots (Jaegers). It’s day 52 of 90 on Pacific Rim Uprising, the follow-up to Guillermo del Toro’s 2013 love letter to Japanese sci-fi traditions, global carnage and ridiculous character names. Uprising is looking to embrace del Toro’s vision but also find something else: new, more accessible colours. Pacific Rim may be mid-tier del Toro (does…

IN 2004, AGED 62, veteran character actor Tobin Bell (then best known for menacing Tom Cruise in The Firm) suddenly became the face of a horror franchise, despite spending most of Saw lying face down on the floor. His character, John ‘Jigsaw’ Kramer, was a big-screen psycho like none other, meting out what he considered justice via a series of elaborately staged traps. Audiences liked what they saw, and Bell has since played Jigsaw seven more times, including in the brand new reboot/ sequel Jigsaw — which is especially impressive considering that Kramer was bumped off in Saw III. We asked Bell to talk us through the whole series to date. SAW (2004) Kramer is revealed to be the mastermind behind the central trap, lying in plain sight on the…

BILLY WILDER’S SUNSET Boulevard is a film overflowing with classic lines (“We didn’t need dialogue. We had faces”; “I am big. It’s the pictures that got small”), mostly uttered by faded silent-movie queen Norma Desmond, played by faded silent-movie queen Gloria Swanson. But even this dialogue pales into insignificance compared to the film’s final line. Believing she is going on set of her long-cherished Salome script directed by Cecil B. DeMille (she is actually facing news cameras about a murder), the deluded Desmond descends the stairs of her decrepit mansion, waving her hands like a drama queen, and says to her butler (Erich Von Stroheim): “Alright, Mr. DeMille, I’m ready for my close-up.” It’s one hell of a way to go out. “Her world has become completely unhinged,” says…

KUMAIL NANJIANI: “This is a scene I think of a lot. It’s really funny and real and awkward and moving. It’s two people who really do love each other, but in very different ways, talking about it like adults. I’ve talked to Holly Hunter about that scene a lot — ‘How did you come up with this and this?’ She told me everything about it. I think it’s a lovely scene.” INT. AARON’S HOUSE — NIGHT Jane (Holly Hunter) has just told broadcast journalist friend Aaron (Albert Brooks) that she thinks she’s in love with anchorman Tom (William Hurt). An agitated Aaron has to get something off his chest. AARON: [makes gagging noise] Jane… Okay. Let’s take the part that has nothing to do with me. Let me just be…

BEFORE INTENSE CARTEL thriller Sicario had even reached the screens in 2015, a follow-up was already being mooted. Talk of a sequel began “about three-quarters of the way through making the first one,” says producer Ed McDonnell. “We loved the story so much and everybody embraced the characters,” he says of the original. Starring Emily Blunt as an FBI agent drowning in murky moral waters, critics and audiences alike were taken by the cartel thriller’s unflinching brutality, gorgeous cinematography and unconventional structure, while it made industry darlings of director Denis Villeneuve and writer Taylor Sheridan. As talks progressed, though, Villeneuve found himself otherwise engaged on 2049-shaped things. “He wishes he had been available,” says McDonnell. “We even talked about him maybe coming back for the third one, should there be…

1 AVENGERS VS X-MEN For years, the Disney-owned Marvel Studios hasn’t been able to go near the X-Men, because some bright spark years ago sold the film rights to Fox. Now, mutants are fair game to share the screen with Tony Stark and his superfriends. What this means for the ongoing X-Men films, from Dark Phoenix to Deadpool 2, remains to be seen, but expect the X-Men to be integrated into the MCU once Avengers 4 is wrapped up in 2019. Most of the roles will likely be cast from scratch, but might this be the thing to lure Hugh Jackman out of super-retirement, to wield Wolverine’s claws one more time? 2 RESTORE THE FANFARE TO STAR WARS There’s no getting around it: watching Star Wars movies without the thrill…

IT SEEMED LIKE dark times for Bright. The Will Smith action fantasy, granted a reported $90 million budget by Netflix, was sent straight to the slaughter ahead of its release with aggressively negative reviews (27 per cent on Rotten Tomatoes). The director, David Ayer, was the main target, but Netflix, inseparable from the story, was a bullseye too. Save your ammunition. Ayer says he went with Netflix because it offered the most money and granted him creative control (Warner Bros. and MGM were part of a bidding war, Deadline claims). If he’d gone with a traditional studio, Bright may have been very different. Netflix is a whipping boy for those who despair that cinema visits are making way for outsized home entertainment. But filmmakers love Netflix. “They trust the filmmaker,”…

★★★ OUT NOW RATED M /115 MINS DIRECTOR Sophie Fiennes CAST Grace Jones, Sly & Robbie, Jean-Paul Goude PLOT Documentarian Sophie Fiennes observes the legendary Grace Jones in the more intimate moments of her life, hoping to reveal the person behind the construct, contrasting this footage with clips from her spectacular stage shows. GRACE BEVERLY JONES is, for most, an enigma. There are of course the verifiable facts — born in Jamaica in 1948, grew up in Syracuse, New York, found fame as a model, musician and actor — but there’s much that is hidden. The Grace Jones we see is all persona — who is the real woman behind the new wave icon? Sophie Fiennes’ documentary — made 40 years after the release of Jones’ first album, Portfolio —…

★★★ OUT 5 APRIL RATED TBC / 89 MINS DIRECTOR Nick Park CAST Eddie Redmayne, Tom Hiddleston, Maisie Williams, Timothy Spall, Richard Ayoade, Selina Griffiths, Johnny Vegas, Gina Yashere, Rob Brydon, Simon Greenall, Miriam Margolyes PLOT After being driven from their land, a Bronze Age tribe make a winner-takes-all deal in an attempt to claim it back: a soccer match against the best team in the land. ONCE FAIRLY PROLIFIC (for a man whose actors can only move millimetres a day), Nick Park’s directorial output has slowed over the past decade — before Early Man, the BBC’s 2008 Christmas Day Wallace and Gromit short A Matter Of Loaf And Death was the last time he yelled, “Action!” to a cast of Plasticine figures. And so his pre-civilisation-set return carries with…

★★★★ OUT NOW RATED M / 134 MINS DIRECTOR Ryan Coogler CAST Chadwick Boseman, Michael B. Jordan, Lupita Nyong’o, Danai Gurira, Martin Freeman, Andy Serkis PLOT Following his father’s death, T’Challa (Boseman) is crowned as Wakanda’s king and super-powered protector. Soon, the new Black Panther is defending his technologically advanced kingdom from a notorious arms dealer (Serkis) and a former soldier with a dark past (Jordan). TO SAY THAT Ryan Coogler’s films are expanding in scope and scale would be to deal in wild understatement. After the wrenching, real-time intimacy of his debut, Fruitvale Station, and the franchise-jolting, bruised adrenalin hit of Creed, we now have Black Panther: a giddily enjoyable, convention-bucking, 134-minute epic that somehow manages to simultaneously be a comic-book blockbuster, a pulsating espionage thriller and an Afro-futurist…

★★★ OUT 22 MARCH RATED M / 120 MINS DIRECTOR Garth Davis CAST Rooney Mara, Joaquin Phoenix, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Tahar Rahim PLOT Mary of Magdala is a single-minded woman who leads a simple life — but one about which she has very firm ideas — in a fishing village. When Jesus of Nazareth visits, she decides to follow him to Jerusalem, playing a central role in the birth of Christianity. WERE MARY MAGDALENE alive today, she would surely take exception to the widespread misconception that she was a prostitute. Certainly there is no evidence in the scriptures to suggest she listed ‘harlot’ as her occupation on her group certificate, yet the idea (popularised by Pope Gregory in 591) still permeates popular culture, even though the Vatican formally identified her as…

★★★ SHOWCASE OUT NOW EPISODES VIEWED 5 CREATED BY Chris Carter CAST Gillian Anderson, David Duchovny, Mitch Pileggi, William B. Davis PLOT Last season’s climax saw Mulder (Duchovny) in the death grip of an alien virus and Scully (Anderson) staring down a hovering UFO. Now the duo must unravel the world-threatening conspiracy while solving a few open X-Files along the way. TWENTY-FIVE YEARS after it first aired, The X-Files is synonymous with alien abductions, government cover-ups and shadowy, nicotine-fuelled cabals. Between contributions to the labyrinthine conspiracy, the show’s heart lay with a string of taut, tightly written case-files, each one a paranormal horror story that tapped perfectly into ’90s paranoia. As a serialised conspiracy thriller The X-Files was good, but as a supernatural procedural, it was entirely without peer. Given…

AUTHOR-GEEK EXTRAORDINAIRE ERNEST CLINE will never forget meeting Steven Spielberg for the first time. It was at Amblin HQ on the Universal lot, 100 yards from the Back To The Future clock tower. He’d had a haircut and completely over-thought his wardrobe. It was the biggest day of his life. “When you walk into Amblin, you walk past the wishing well Marty McFly and his siblings are leaning on in the photo that literally disappears throughout the movie,” he marvels. “When I got into Steven’s office he had Rosebud from Citizen Kane. It made me feel like Charlie Bucket in Willy Wonka’s factory for the first time, seeing how he makes the candy.” Aptly enough, Ready Player One, Cline’s 2011 debut novel, has its roots in Roald Dahl — the…

DAKOTA FANNING, WAR OF THE WORLDS (2005) “I turned 11 on the set of War Of The Worlds. Steven gave me a video camera for my birthday. I made a lot of great memories on that. I’d first met him for [TV series] Taken. It was ‘Executive Produced By Steven Spielberg’. To be in something that he had touched was so exciting. “War Of The Worlds was huge. We filmed on the East Coast for half of it and on the West Coast for half of it. On the Universal lot, they had smashed up a real airplane and built a set like it had crashed into homes. The magnitude of that set alone was insane and we only filmed on there for two-and-a-half days. I was young and couldn’t…

“THE FILM IS TENSE. BASICALLY, IT'S AN EIGHT-PERSOM MEXICAN STAND-OFF.” Sitting in the back room of a London restaurant, soft jazz piping in overhead, Armando Iannucci sifts through the photographs on his phone. There, amid the happy snaps of sons and daughter, of love and laughter, lies a grainy black-and-white image of a mass murderer: Lavrentiy Beria, the former Marshal of the Soviet Union and the chief of the secret police (NKVD) under Joseph Stalin. Beria was a sadistic torturer and sexual predator, a paedophile, and a man responsible for the murder of countless innocents. Stalin dubbed him “my Himmler”. The picture’s presence is not, however, as incongruous as it may appear. Iannucci, the man who along with Steve Coogan brought us Alan Partridge, and who created caustic political TV…

TO TELL THE story of Back To The Future, we must first go back to the past. It began life in 1975, when Robert Zemeckis and Bob Gale were kicking around ideas for a World’s Fair-inspired time-travel movie titled Professor Brown Visits The Future. But it found its heart in 1980, when Gale, flicking through his father’s high-school yearbook, wondered whether he would have been friends with the clean-cut class president had they been contemporaries. “When you were a kid, did your parents ever tell you all the tough things they did as a kid?” Zemeckis later reflected. “Walking 12 miles to school through the snow? Wouldn’t it be really interesting to go back and see if they really did walk through those blizzards?” It would take a further five…
