CGiii Comment
First mistake...the ending is told right at the very beginning...therefore, it had better be interesting to keep the attention for the marathon.
Second mistake...it's not interesting.
Underdeveloped characters...walking...characters leave...walking...characters die...walking...
Third mistake...the ending...it has got to be one of the worst endings of all time.
Simply dreadful.

The(ir) Blurb...
In 1941, three men reach India from Tibet, having walked 4000 miles after escaping a Siberian gulag. The film tells their story and that of four others who escaped with them and a teenage girl who joins them in flight. The group's natural leader is Janusz, a Pole condemned by accusations secured by torturing his wife; he knows how to live in the wilds. They escape under cover of a snowstorm: a cynical American, a Russian thug, a comic accountant, a pastry chef who draws, a priest, and a Pole with night blindness. They face freezing nights, lack of food and water, mosquitoes, an endless desert, the Himalayas, and moral questions of when to leave someone behind.
