## Why It Matters
127 Hours matters as a cinematic work that crosses several established film categories: it is simultaneously presented in metadata as a docudrama, drama, biographical account, and a survival story while being produced/positioned as an independent film. That multi-genre classification places it at the intersection of documentary-based dramatization and narrative survival cinema, which is relevant for studies of genre blending and independent filmmaking practice. The film’s association with companies recorded in its metadata—Searchlight Pictures (an American film distribution company) and Pathé (a longstanding French media production and theatre business)—situates it within both independent-production channels and established distribution/production networks, illustrating how independent titles can be connected to major distribution infrastructures. The multiple publication dates reflect staggered release patterns often relevant for festival, theatrical, or regional release analyses. Finally, its online presence via a dedicated page on a major distributor’s site provides a stable point of reference for promotion and archival purposes.
