![Mountains have been formed by one [or other] of the causes of the formation of stone, most probably from agglutinative clay which slowly dried and petrified during ages of which we have no record. It seems likely that this habitable world was in former days uninhabitable and, indeed, submerged beneath the ocean. Then, becoming exposed little by little, it petrified in the course of ages.](/assets/img/quote-photos/mountains-have-been-formed-by-one-or-other-of-the-causes-of-the-formation-of-st.jpg)

But we expect that age group to grow over the coming weeks as word of mouth spreads. The film is budgeted considerably under $30 million, so it's going to be very profitable.
