"The movie is so gloriously bloody-minded, so perverse in its obstinacy, that it rises to a kind of mad purity." – Roger Ebert From Gus Van Sant, the groundbreaking director of Good Will Hunting and My Own Private Idaho, comes a suspenseful and highly provocative story of two men pushed to the limit. A pair of best friends (Matt Damon and Casey Affleck), who've nicknamed each other "Gerry," set out on a desert hike. But what begins as a simple daytime adventure turns into an intense life-and-death journey that will test the boundaries of human endurance ... and ultimately, their bond. Written by Damon, Affleck, and Van Sant, this uncommonly compelling motion picture is a starkly realized triumph of visionary filmmaking.
