If the scenery does not capture you or the acting inspire maybe you should see it again. The story is fascinating and placing Rae in the centre is superb. He was an amazing man. I loved the whole thing - and by the way I always thought Dickens a creep and a sponger.

In 1845, the British send John Franklin with two ships and three years supply on a well-equipped expedition to find the Northwest Passage in the Artic but the group disappears. Franklin's wife eventually convinces the Admiralty to offer a £20,000 reward. She even pursues spirits and psychics. In 1854, John Rae (Rick Roberts) of the Hudson's Bay Company discovers Eskimo tales of the lost Franklin expedition having resorted to cannibalism. Many including Lady Franklin with help from Charles Dickens fought against the leaked report condemning Rae to ignominy and elevating Franklin as the hero adventurer who discovered the Passage. This is a documentary about John Rae starting with his life and departure from Orkney. Rick Roberts studies his life in Orkney and then travels to Canada's north to see the Inuit ways. Director John Walker and his actors are working on recreating scenes of the story. It's part documentary and part actors' workshop. It's an usual way to do a documentary and some of it feels unnecessarily stretched out. There is a weird combative section where former Naval officer and historian Coleman claims the Franklin expedition was slaughtered by natives. The Charles Dickens part is the big discovery. This is educational about a little known aspect of the famous historical event.

I've read a few books about the Franklin Expedition and it was great to have some visuals and scenery shots to accompany the text. It was also interesting to learn more about John Rae and the difficult situation he faced taking what he had learned back to England. This documentary takes a novel approach in its form and I respect that. However, I did not enjoy it very much. I would find it hard to recommend.

I could not find Passage anywhere. I bought a copy from the states, a waste of £12 and hence me writing my first IDMB review. I got very excited when I came across this 'Movie'. I checked out the site, watched the trailer and when I looked it up here at the IDMB I tragically failed to notice the 2nd review and 1 star by 'Mr Avid'. The first review giving 5 stars by 'fergus—mitchel' in retrospect looks suspicious as it is his only one and seems a pretty slick PR puff. We tried to watch Passage last night but got very bored by the cutting back and forward to the 'making of'. I tried to fast forward to the expected drama, but all there was, was this tiresome switching between drama/doc/navel gazing as it lurched slowly to its cringe-worthy conclusion. I hoped for a drama or documentary and got neither. We gave up after 25 minutes of contrived, self important waffle and bullshit. It is a shame as 'Mr Avid' in his succinct review says John Ray's story is a terrific one and the cinematography is actually very good with breathtaking location shots. The NFBC wasted their money on this. I looked to see if 'Fatal Passage' had been made as a movie but unfortunately not. Give this a miss. Go get the book.

The story of John Ray's search for the missing Franklin Expedition, which went in search of the Northwest Passage in the mid-1800s, is a fascinating one. Unfortunately this film, which attempts to mix layers of self-referential documentary about its own making with dramatized scenes among members of the British establishment at the time, is painfully misconceived at every level. Despite some spectacular images of the North, it's an amateurish bore. The climactic device of bringing in Charles Dickens' great-great-grandson to apologize in person to a representative of the Inuit people who were maligned by the great writer as murderous savages offers a ridiculous and irrelevant conclusion.

I viewed this film in the company of archaeologists and arctic specialists with some connection to the current Franklin expeditions, and its authenticity was vouched for. This is not a direct adaptation of McGoogan's book, rather a hybrid of documentary styles which come together to tell a ripping good yarn. I don't understand the slagging that a couple of reviewers have given Passage, beyond the fact that they have missed some of the nuances, especially regarding the Inuit.(Tagak Curley DOES have the juice to speak for his people...note the Order of Canada lapel pin) Even if you have already read Fatal Passage, it is worth watching this film for its lush visuals and the historical and geographical texture it lends to the tale. Well worth the investment!

'Passage' achieves something truly special in telling the story of John Rae and his remarkable journeys. In recognising that there's more to a story than the story itself, John Walker blends established techniques to create a wonderful, rich hybrid documentary that paints a full picture of a man and his times, the lands he travelled through, the people he met and the struggles he endured. Walker's choices in switching narrative viewpoints, in sparing use of dramatic re-creation and in bringing the modern world face-to-face with the Victorian are the sign of a fine director at ease with his craft and one who credits his audience with the intelligence to follow his line. A landmark documentary.
