MOVIE PLOT

One year after surviving a life-altering incident, Becky, a professional rock climber drowning in a sea of grief, reluctantly picks up where she left off to confront her fears. As a thrill-seeking friend re-enters Becky's ruined life, the two experienced climbers embark on a high-risk adventure to the top of the abandoned B67 TV tower. The two women seek to conquer the anxiety-inducing, vertigo-inspiring, 2,000-foot construction of weather-beaten metal and rattling rivets in the middle of the Mojave desert. But out there, even the slightest mistake can spell trouble. When the risky climb doesn't go as planned, the two women must summon every last ounce of courage and strength to devise a plan for a safe return home-or die trying.

Welcome besties! 💖✨

We are so excited to be starting this journey with you! The two of us determined we needed to keep in better touch and were severely lacking on creative outlets- thus “Two Tickets, Please” was born. We hope bringing the thoughts and opinions of a film major and movie amateur will bring a vibrant and entertaining take on each film we watch!
