"Based on a true story".

Well worth a watch if you want a bit of adventure and a true life mystery!

Yup. Good film. Underrated, old skool style adventure.

What was the verdict? Might catch up on this tonight. A few reviews say it’s slow and dull but that suits my personality, plus love a bit of Mysterious Cities of Gold so probs right up my street?

From what you describe I think you'll probably enjoy it.

I would love to know just how it concluded in real life. I thought it was fascinating and lead me to a few interesting hours on Wiki etc afterwards, looking out all up.

It's been a while since I read the book so cannot remember how close the film is to Fawcett's life as also watched the film a while back.

Try the lost city of Z by David Grann.
