An interesting IMDB review prompted me to write my own quicky for a documentary I'm currently watching called "Home".Focusing on earth and how humans have changed the planet that mother nature took millions of years to create. Global warming, erosion, over population, de-forestation the entire environmental guilt trip is explained through some weighted narration by Glenn Close. It's pace may be a little slow, but the astounding aerial cinematography through 54 countries (including Australia)keeps you captivated through most of the film. A pretty amazing piece of French cinema considering the backing company PPR are a multinational holding company specialising in retail shops and luxury brands. A strange coupling, especially as shown in the opening titles, but it seems like it works alright here.
If your in the mood for your eyes to be opened a little bit more and enjoyed the doom that was "An Inconvenient Truth" take a look at this feature. It's currently available on
youtube or your usual video outlet. A thought provoking and beautifully presented film. Oh and take my advice, blow out your d/l quota and watch the HD version... it's worth it.
