Synopsis

Scott of the Antarctic (1948) box art John Mills stars as the stiff-upper-lipped but doomed explorer Robert Falcon Scott in this meticulously made British drama about his ill-fated attempt to be first man to reach the South Pole. Thanks to Scott's diaries, just about everyone knows the outcome of his journey; what comes to the surface here is the heroism and steadfastness of his crew. Inspired by footage shot on the actual expedition, the film achieves a strikingly realistic look.
