Hey folks, Harry here... Checking out the trailer to KON-TIKI was something of a discovery for me. It's this UK/Norway/Denmark production about Thor Heyerdahl, the crazy as hell explorer that believed there were currents in the ocean that would guide his BALSA WOOD RAFT 5000 miles across the Pacific Ocean. He was considered insane, for obvious reasons. I mean. In 1947 when he did this - we had modes of sea-faring transportation that was notably safer than BALSA WOOD. But he wanted to prove his theory. This film is about that story - and to play Thor Heyerdahl, they've cast one of the actors from MAX MANUS: MAN OF WAR, Pål Sverre Valheim Hagen. This is one of the films I'm most hopeful for seeing this year, because it truly does look extraordinary here, don't you think?
