"Their civilisation may well predate our own." (Percy shouts an answer to the masses in answer to the scoffing  from the pews of a parliamentary inquisition).

The legend of Percy Fawcett is worth retelling, and needs to be told well. The Lost City of Z ticks both boxes with engaging intelligence. Many historians regard Fawcett as one of our bravest explorers. Initially co-opted to map unexplored Amazonia in South America by The World Geographic Society in 1905, Fawcett (Charlie Hunnan) along with Henry Costin (Robert Pattinson) became convinced that they could find the relics of a civilisation of high sophistication during their travels. For those whos best cinema experiences come from historical costume dramas, don't miss this lavish work. In fact any lover of excellent cinema will get a thrill from Fawcett's exploits. 10GUMS.
