I highly recommend "Nyad"

What an amazing and inspiring true story. I definitely think it'll grab several awards this Oscar season. Warning: it's exhausting watching all she went through.

Streaming on Netflix

4. I red the book several years ago

And absolutely loved it. I'm a bit hesitant to watch it, although it is in my queue.

5. The performances were stellar.

I was left in awe of what Nyad conquered: within herself and the external forces of nature and time. She showed that with the might within ourselves we can be and do so much more--a true superperson.
I left the couch suddenly doing stretches and knee-bends.

6. I found myself saying

With each attempt, "Okay, this is the one where she makes it!" Only to see her give up. The one that ended in the wild storm was...well...wild! What perseverance and determination!

7. I kind of did as well.

I remembered, though, the media coverage she got after she did finally make it. The movie did engage, and it was easy to forget the actual history. The performances were completely convincing.

8. I'll probably review it for my local paper

I usually cover more indie flicks, but occasionally I encounter a movie so good, I just have to review it. This is one of those.

9. Watched it yesterday

The acting was stellar, and the story was riveting. A great film depicting strong women is hard to find.
Highly recommend watching it!
