The Hollywood Reporter reviews ”The Wildest Dream”. Jimmy Chin worked on the North side of Mount Everest as one of the primary high altitude cinematographers on this film during the Spring of 2007. Jimmy was also the primary photographer for the project. 

“The Wildest Dream” is a feature length documentary following the ill-fated 1924 attempt by George Mallory to climb Everest. Conrad Anker, who discovered Mallory’s body 75 years later, replicates the journey using some of the same climbing techniques and equipment. The film will open in theaters in August of 2010.
