Ladder 49 | Hitchens Virtual Theatre

Academy Award-nominated stars Joaquin Phoenix (Best supporting actor, Gladiator, 2000) and John Travolta (Best Actor, Pulp Fiction, 1994) ignite the intense action in this heroic tale of ordinary men with uncommon courage! As part of a tightly knit brotherhood of skilled firefighters, Jack Morrison (Phoenix) grows from nexperienced rookie to seasoned veteran as he faces a dangerous jog that makes him a hero to strangers but often shortchanges his wife (Jacinda Barrett - The Human Stain) and kids. Then, when he becomes trapped in the worse blaze of his career, things Jack holds most important - family, duty, courage - come sharply into focus.

Synopsis: Trapped in a fire that looks likely to kill him, a fireman takes a last opportunity to reflect on his career, wife, and family.
