The surprising true story of a woman who took on long-distance swimming in her 60s

The Netflix film ``Naiad'' (Annette). The acting of the two actors is, of course, wonderful, but the story, which is based on a true story, is also amazing.

The main character is a person who takes on a difficult challenge, and it features a genre of sports that has not been depicted much in movies before. The main character, Diana Nyad, is a real American long-distance swimmer. She distinguished herself as a swimmer in her 20s, and at the age of 28, she attempted a long-distance swim from Cuba to Florida in the United States, which is known as the "Everest of the swimming world."

The film "Naiad: The Determination to Cross the Sea" is now available exclusively on Netflix

Unfortunately, this attempt ended in failure, and she later became a sports journalist and appeared on television programs. However, 30 years The Day After... Now in her 60s, she once again challenges the "Everest of swimming." It may seem 100% reckless, but she chooses her friend Bonnie as her coach, forms "Team Nyad" with her and her friends, and moves forward. This film is a documentary-style work that follows her journey, and while you will be overwhelmed by the harsh swimming scenes, you will root for the heroine (her courageous words "Never give up on your dreams" and "Age doesn't matter when it comes to chasing your dreams" are memorable).

Annette Bening, who has been active since the 1990s, is one of Hollywood's talented actresses, and has appeared in " American Beauty " (1999), " On the Spot " (2004), and " Kids All Right " (1010). ), and was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Actress, her fourth nomination for this film. On the other hand, star Jodie Foster, who plays the friend, has won two Academy Awards for Best Actress for ` `The Accusation'' (1988) and ``The Silence The Silence of the Lambs '' (1991).

As this is the first time these two big stars have worked together, it piques the interest of movie fans. They work so well together that they were both nominated for an Oscar and a Golden Globe, but it's hard to imagine either of them doing it alone. That's because each of them shines brightly when they're together.
